SUMMARY:Recovery Housing and the Americans with Disabilities Act
DESCRIPTION:Record rates of overdose deaths involving fentanyl\, along with the persistent issue of alcohol use disorder\, demand a multi-faceted policy approach. Social determinants\, such as housing\, and expanded access to medications for substance use disorder are part of effective\, long-term solutions. National standards for recovery housing\, along with protecting the rights of individuals under the law\, are central to facilitating a needed societal shift and maximizing opportunities for people with substance use disorder. \nRecognizing the central role that housing plays in improving outcomes for people with substance use disorder\, the Substance Abuse and Mental Health Services Administration (SAMHSA) recently issued Best Practices for Recovery Housing. In addition\, the U.S. Department of Justice is protecting the rights of individuals with substance use disorder afforded under the Fair Housing Act and the Americans with Disabilities Act. \nPlease join the O’Neill Institute’s Addiction and Public Policy Initiative for a timely virtual conversation on the current state of recovery housing and opportunities for improving recovery housing in the United States. The panelists will discuss efforts at the state and federal levels to improve access to quality housing for people in recovery from substance use disorder.

SUMMARY:New York’s SUD IMD Exclusion Waiver: Context & Implications
DESCRIPTION:The NYS Council for Community Behavioral Healthcare is pleased to announce the next webinar in our series of ‘Members Only’ training events focused on various elements of New York’s newly approved 1115 Waiver Amendment: \nNew York’s SUD IMD Exclusion Waiver: Context & Implications \nDate:  March 26\, 10:00 -11:00 a.m.  (No registration required. We will send you the Zoom link on Friday\, March 22) \nDescription:  New York is now among 37 states who have gained Centers for Medicare and Medicaid (CMS) approval for an Substance Use Disorder (SUD) 1115 waiver demonstration\, with five additional states currently seeking approval. The ability and greater flexibilities to provide Medicaid reimbursement for residential and inpatient services is a driving force for state participation. However\, CMS also requires states to evaluate the impact of their demonstrations and to achieve certain milestones. \nOn March 26 from 10-11\, join HMA’s Gina Eckart and Kamala Greene-Genece to learn more about why states\, and specifically New York\, are levering this opportunity\, what NYS Council members need to know about their role in a successful SUD Waiver demonstration\, and how they can capitalize on the opportunity it presents.
