Description
The Rural Communities Opioid Response Program (RCORP)-Impact aims to support rural communities in driving measurable improvements in access to integrated, coordinated treatment, and recovery services for substance use disorder (SUD), including opioid use disorder (OUD). The program focuses on reducing the impact of opioid misuse on rural America by supporting a comprehensive approach to address all SUD within a continuum of mental, behavioral, and related social supports. Key aspects of the program include new or expanded evidence-based SUD prevention, treatment, and recovery services in rural areas; coordination across health and supportive social services; a larger, more responsive workforce to address SUD-related needs; and multi-sector community networks to strengthen and sustain local service delivery.
