Programs
Addiction Resource Center
This online portal at [2] is a comprehensive resource to assist patients and their loved ones with substance use disorders. The new platform, with support from the Chris and Vicky Cornell Foundation, will guide patients through a validated self-assessment tool, help them develop a proposed treatment plan, and provide a guide to reliable, evidence-based information about resources in their local area. Initially, the Forum will host a database of local resources in Ohio, Maryland and Minnesota. Over the coming months, new states will be added so that more and more Americans suffering with substance use disorder will have a place to turn for help.
The Grayken Center for Addiction -- Resources for Parents in MA
The Grayken Center for Addiction of the Boston Medical Center has teamed with the Partnership for Drug-Free Kids to offer free resources to parents in MA who have children struggling with addiction and misuse of substances.[1][3]
Perhaps other states could build on this model and cost-effectively offer similar programs without having to create them from scratch.
