Adapting and Testing an Intervention for Families with a Parent in Methadone Treatment

Families with a parent who is receiving methadone treatment for opioid use disorder are often at high risk for overdose and adverse childhood events, yet these families are rarely the focus of prevention interventions. This project will adapt Families Facing the Future, an evidence-based program that combines relapse prevention and parenting-skills training with home-based case management services for use by one of the largest nonprofit methadone providers in Florida. The overall goal of the project is to determine how to translate a prevention intervention into the real-world practice of opioid treatment programs.
