Watch this NASHP-ASTHO webinar.
Cross-agency collaborations are critical to develop and execute comprehensive approaches to substance use disorder (SUD) prevention and treatment. State public health and Medicaid agencies must look beyond their traditional roles to design a strategy greater than the sum of individual agency activities to achieve broad population health impact. The Association of State and Territorial Health officials (ASTHO) and the National Academy for State Health Policy (NASHP) share national recommendations detailing how public health and Medicaid officials can launch and sustain partnerships that align policies, funding, staffing, and data across agencies to address SUD.
This webinar shares insights from state officials to address the needs of people living with or at risk of developing SUD and feature state examples of successful partnerships in action.
