3.3. Insight on Intervention Strategies Informed by an Ecological Perspective
I think it’s going to be very hard to make any progress [only focusing] downstream…we can do all this work trying to get people mental health care or trying to get them housed…but if that housing [requires] them being abstinent from substances, we are automatically cutting out wide swathes of the population who are either not ready or don’t have a goal of being abstinent from substances. If we’re trying to address some of these things in isolation from actual policy change, I think we’re going to always be fighting an uphill battle.—Social worker specializing in SUD/OUD
3.4. Insight on Diagram Usefulness and Future Opportunities
If [the diagram] really comes together and simplifies, it could help the general public see these connections, because that’s what you get in your home or on the news or when politicians are talking, you know there’s all kinds of different things that come up. But I don’t think that anyone’s ever seen a document like this that really connects all the dots where they say, ‘Hey…my uncle Jim who died of an opioid overdose and when I look at this document, I can see this is how he started out. He dropped out of college, then he lost his job, then he got divorced, then we found out he had depression,’ you know what I mean? I don’t think that people see all those connections and I think that’s really important for people to understand to really get a better feel for substance use and what it means to have an addiction.—OUD intervention program manager at a local health department
