Webinar Description: Join Providers Clinical Support System — Medications for Opioid Use Disorder (PCSS-MOUD) and the National Council for Mental Wellbeing on August 14, 3:30-4:30 p.m. ET, as we learn from two leading experts from GRAND Mental Health, an Oklahoma-based Certified Community Behavioral Health Clinic (CCBHC), on the benefits of using the CCBHC model to treat opioid use disorder (OUD) and medications for OUD (MOUD).

According to the Substance Abuse and Mental Health Services Administration, in 2019, only 10% of adults in the U.S with any substance use disorder (SUD) received treatment in part because effective evidence-based treatments for SUDs can be difficult to access in many communities.  CCBHCs help address this issue, delivering easily accessible and effective outpatient behavioral health care and SUD treatment through activities including expanded operating hours, same-day and walk-in appointments, outreach to sidelined populations and moving service delivery beyond clinic walls to reach people in their homes and in the community.

GRAND Mental Health operates 31 clinics and the largest residential substance use treatment center in Oklahoma. By creating immediate access to quality care in the least restrictive environments, GRAND saw 30,000 clients statewide in 2024 and a 93.1% reduction in SUD-related hospitalizations in 2021.

Educational Objectives:

• Discuss the value of the Certified Community Behavioral Health Clinic (CCBHC) model in the delivery of MOUD services and sustaining OUD treatment.
• Describe the successful programmatic and service delivery attributes of a CCBHC Crisis Center that focuses on SUD and a collaboration between a CCBHC and Residential SUD Treatment Facility.
• Outline how CCBHCs implement evaluation processes, including tracking service models and utilizing data.
