Adolescents and young adults are experiencing fast-growing rates of opioid overdose and hospitalization, yet have the lowest rates of access to treatment. In this session, CA Bridge will share learnings from a pilot project to improve access to medication for addiction treatment for young people (ages 12 to 26). Presenters will share their experience in coalition-building to reach vulnerable youth and answer questions about dosing and consent considerations when treating patients under 18.
