How We Built This: Improving Treatment Access and Engagement for Hispanic/Latinx Patients

Many Hispanic/Latinx patients do not receive Substance Use Disorder (SUD) treatment. In cases where there is treatment access, there are often lower completion rates compared with non-Hispanic white patients.This session reviews the results of a program implemented to increase access, engagement, and retention of Hispanic/Latinx patients in addiction treatment. Upon completion, learners will be able to: describe the development and implementation of a care coordination program within a diversemulti-systemic network of SUD care, understand barriers and facilitators to engaging and retaining Hispanic/Latinx people with SUD in this network, and understand and share specific strategies for engaging Hispanic/Latinx people with SUD in treatment.
