Website with Resources for Rural Communities to Address Substance Use Disorder (SUD)
07/29/2024
A new website, the Rural SUD Info Center, highlights the work of three different Rural Centers of Excellence on Substance Use Disorders, all of which are funded by HRSA’s Rural Communities Opioid Response Program (RCORP). The free resources on the website—including webinar recordings and presentations, resource guides, articles, posters, fact sheets, and videos—cover information and best practices related to SUD. Visitors to the website will find current information and technical assistance opportunities on SUD through a rural lens, including trends and best practices related to interventions, treatment engagement, overcoming stigma, harm reduction, delivery of support services, medications for opioid use disorder (MOUD), recovery, and more. The development of this website was informed by rural partners and adapted to address rural community needs.
