3. Invest in infrastructure or staffing at government or not -for -profit agencies to support <br />collaborative, cross -system coordination with the purpose of preventing <br />overprescribing, opioid misuse, or opioid overdoses, treating those with OUD and any <br />co-occurring SUD/MH conditions, co -usage, and/or co -addiction, supporting them in <br />treatment or recovery, connecting them to care, or implementing other strategies to <br />abate the opioid epidemic described in this opioid abatement strategy list. <br />4. Provide resources to staff government oversight and management of opioid <br />abatement programs. <br />K. TRAINING <br />In addition to the training referred to in various items above, support training to abate the <br />opioid epidemic through activities, programs, or strategies that may include, but are not <br />limited to, the following: <br />1. Provide funding for staff training or networking programs and services to improve the <br />capability of government, community, and not -for -profit entities to abate the opioid <br />crisis. <br />2. Invest in infrastructure and staffing for collaborative cross -system coordination to <br />prevent opioid misuse, prevent overdoses, and treat those with OUD and any co- <br />occurring SUD/MH conditions, co -usage, and/or co -addiction, or implement other <br />strategies to abate the opioid epidemic described in this opioid abatement strategy <br />list (e.g., health care, primary care, pharmacies, PDMPs, etc.) <br />L. RESEARCH <br />Support opioid abatement research that may include, but is not limited to, the following: <br />1. Monitoring, surveillance, and evaluation of programs and strategies described in this <br />opioid abatement strategy list. <br />2. Research non-opioid treatment of chronic pain. <br />3. Research on improved service delivery for modalities such as SBIRT that demonstrate <br />promising but mixed results in populations vulnerable to opioid use disorders. <br />4. Research on innovative supply-side enforcement efforts such as improved detection <br />of mail -based delivery of synthetic opioids. <br />5. Expanded research on swift/certain/fair models to reduce and deter opioid misuse <br />within criminal justice populations that build upon promising approaches used to <br />address other substances (e.g. Hawaii HOPE and Dakota 24/7). <br />6. Research on expanded modalities such as prescription methadone that can expand <br />access to MAT. <br />
