CTN TH & TM SIG Webinar: Lessons Learned from Implementation of the CA Contingency Management Pilot
September 13 @ 8:30 am - 9:30 am PDT
Presenters:
Darren Urada, PhD, UCLA
Thomas Freese, PhD, UCLA
Webinar description:
More than half of individuals admitted for specialty substance use disorder treatment in California identify stimulants as their primary or secondary drug, yet many people who use stimulants do not seek treatment. Numerous studies have shown that contingency management (CM) is the most effective treatment for stimulant use disorder. California’s innovative Recovery Incentives Program is a groundbreaking initiative that benefits California and serves as a potential blueprint for other states. In this webinar, Drs. Freese and Urada will delve into the program’s achievements and challenges by providing an overview of the Program, and preliminary quantitative and qualitative evaluation findings. Presenters will talk about the connection to technology and the potential for telehealth implementation in the future. Time will be provided for Q&A and discussion with the audience.
The presentation will be recorded and will be posted to the CTN Library as soon as it is available.
