## What the grant funds

Individuals in the US justice system are disproportionately likely to have SUD/OUD, are at high risk for opioid withdrawal upon incarceration, and are at elevated risk for overdose post-release if they have not received MOUD while detained. Most US jails do not offer MOUD to everyone who could benefit from them. JCOIN focuses on the translation of research-to-practice to address the overdose crisis in the context of the criminal justice system specifically, increasing delivery of and access to MOUD. A portfolio of research projects conducts hybrid effectiveness-implementation trials to address key barriers to delivery of evidence-based OUD treatments to justice-involved populations. This is the only HEAL initiative with a primary focus on justice-involved populations and criminal-legal systems.
