The U.S. faces critical behavioral health workforce shortages, with HRSA projecting a 49% increase in demand for care alongside an 11% decrease in available clinical professionals. These shortages are particularly pronounced in the SUD workforce regarding access to essential treatments. Inevitability, workforce challenges impact patients, who may encounter restricted access in underserved areas and compromised care quality.

Shatterproof Treatment Atlas has collected data on SUD treatment delivery from over 4,500 facilities. This data offers insights into staff composition, clinical focus, and training, aiding efforts to strengthen the SUD workforce and ensure positive patient outcomes.

This workshop also analyzes SUD workforce trends in Pennsylvania and other states. Participants will engage in discussions on workforce challenges, existing models, and innovative solutions to support staff in delivering high-quality SUD care.

Presenter:
Lisa Kugler, PsyD, Senior Vice President, Shatterproof Treatment Atlas

Objectives: Following this course, the learner will:

  • Explore staffing trends across Pennsylvania SUD treatment sites to understand areas of strength and opportunities for improvement;
  • Analyze and compare Pennsylvania SUD treatment staffing against other states to understand progress at the local and multi-state levels; and
  • Evaluate potential solutions to support and enhance SUD treatment staffing in Pennsylvania based on available data and their own experiences in the field.

Certificates of attendance are available to RCPA members who attend this webinar; anyone interested in a certificate should contact Cathy Barrick. To apply for CEs, you will need to register for the RCPA Annual Conference Strive to Thrive and indicate you attended the webinar in your CE packet, which will be made available on the mobile app.

The Pennsylvania Department of Drug and Alcohol Programs (DDAP), in partnership with Penn State Harrisburg’s Douglas W. Pollock Center for Addiction Outreach and Research, Shatterproof, and PGP, also known as The Public Good Projects, announced findings from the fourth year of the Life Unites Us campaign, an evidence-based approach to reducing the stigma of substance use disorder (SUD).

During its fourth year, the campaign served over nine million impressions to almost two million Pennsylvanians with information and messaging to encourage stigma reduction.Life Unites Us is a people-forward, research-driven campaign that DDAP launched in September 2020. The campaign utilizes social media to spread stories of individuals in recovery, their family members, and allies who support those with SUD. Additionally, the campaign gives local organizations an opportunity to learn through webinars, fosters community partnerships to promote recovery-focused support at the local level, and maintains an interactive data dashboard detailing the campaign’s progress.

The Pennsylvania Department of Drug and Alcohol Programs announced an open enrollment period at the end of 2022 for licensed substance use disorder (SUD) treatment providers in Pennsylvania to submit their information to be included in the Addiction Treatment Locator, Assessment, and Standards Platform (ATLAS). This open enrollment period has been extended through January 13, 2023.

Those who can take advantage of this extension include:

  1. Facilities already included in ATLAS. Providers already enrolled and needing to make changes to their profile information should contact Shatterproof directly.
  2. Facilities that have not submitted the treatment facility survey. Shatterproof will reach out directly to licensed SUD facilities that are not currently included on the tool. There is a streamlined submission process for those organizations with multiple facilities.

By completing the ATLAS survey during this open enrollment period, providers ensure that the information presented in their site’s profile on the ATLAS website is accurate. Providers also gain access to a customized portal that allows them to benchmark and compare their services against their peers. Contact Angad Buttar with questions or to have the treatment facility survey resent to your agency.
