Board public statement...

MASAM has been active in supporting inclusion of language in various state bills that would mandate evidence-based treatment of OUD for adults incarcerated in the Commonwealth.  We include a letter from the Association for Behavioral Healthcare that nicely summarizes the issues.  In which bill we ultimately succeed in promoting humane and effective care is not predictable currently.
