Brief Summary
The goal of this study is to see whether or not a strategic planning process is able to introduce and sustain improvements in the working relationship between probation/parole departments and community-based addiction treatment agencies that provide medication assisted therapy (MAT) for individuals with opioid or alcohol dependence. In addition, this study seeks to improve probation/parole agency personnel's knowledge and perceptions about MAT, and increase the number of appropriate referrals to community treatment agencies that provide MAT. There are three phases to this study. Phase 1 includes a pilot study to determine the quality and availability of client level records and the collection of baseline data (the pilot study protocol was previously submitted to TMH IRB). Phase 2 will consist of a Knowledge, Perceptions and Information (KPI) intervention during which probation/parole agencies will undergo training to increase knowledge about the effectiveness of MAT, and complete a post training assessment to evaluate the effectiveness of the KPI intervention. During Phase 3, probation/parole agencies will be randomly assigned to a 12-month Organizational Linkage Intervention (OLI) condition or to control (no further intervention). Agencies assigned to the OLI will establish a Pharmacotherapy Exchange Council (PEC) that consists of staff from both the probation/parole and community treatment agencies. The PEC will undergo a strategic planning process to increase the availability of MAT for opiate and/or alcohol dependent individuals who are on probation/parole.

Outcome Measures
Primary Outcomes (1)
Opinions About MAT
Measures knowledge, perceptions, and intentions regarding the use of pharmacotherapy for the treatment of opioid and alcohol dependence. Will be assessed at baseline, post-training, post intervention, and 6-month follow-up.
6-month follow-up
Secondary Outcomes (2)
Interorganizational Relationships
6-month follow-up
Referrals to Medication Assisted Treatment (MAT)
6-Month Follow-up
Study Arms (2)
KPI training only
ACTIVE COMPARATORStudy sites randomized to this arm will receive a knowledge, perceptions and information (KPI) training for community correctional and treatment staff to address knowledge, perceptions, and information regarding local resources about MAT.
KPI plus OLI
EXPERIMENTALStudy sites randomized to this arm will receive the KPI training plus a Organizational Linkage Intervention (OLI) that will: (a) establish a local Pharmacotherapy Exchange Council (PEC) among agencies important for the implementation of MAT in community corrections; (b) facilitate a strategic planning process within the PEC to increase the availability of MAT for opiate and/or alcohol dependent individuals who are on probation/parole; and (c) identify a community corrections coordinator in one of the local agencies to operationalize and implement the strategic plan.
