The four-year grant, which runs from September 1, 2024 to August 31, 2028, will fund the ICGH-IMPACT project to provide substance use disorder (SUD), co-occurring mental health, and trauma treatment, recovery, and resource support for at least 565 individuals in four rural counties in southeastern North Carolina.
The project will use a whole-person, person-centered "recovery, not treatment" model to address critical healthcare needs in the region, including lack of integrated and accessible services, limited treatment options including medication-assisted treatment (MAT), few recovery housing options, limited employment opportunities, barriers to jail-based treatment and reentry, increased youth substance use, and a fractured and siloed service delivery system. Key services will include MAT, behavioral health treatment, peer support, telehealth, and community outreach, as well as system-level initiatives to improve data-driven decision making, expand recovery housing, and integrate social and economic resources.
