In collaboration with The Center at Sierra Health Foundation, Facente Consulting has developed a statewide landscape analysis and ten case study videos hosted on an interactive StoryMaps site (link in our bio!) highlighting how Medications for Addiction Treatment (MAT) save lives and strengthen communities.
California continues to face an urgent overdose crisis, with over 5,000 opioid-related deaths in 2024. MAT—such as methadone, buprenorphine and naltrexone—is a proven tool that reduces overdose deaths and improves long-term care outcomes, and yet many communities still face barriers to access.
There is so much to digest, so keep your eyes open this week for key takeaways and video highlights. We’ll be featuring this project all week!
