Webinar to explain NHSC Substance Use Disorder Workforce Loan Repayment Program, Jan. 10

 

To combat the nation's opioid crisis, the U.S. DHHS Health Resources & Services Administration (HRSA) has launched the NHSC Substance Use Disorder Workforce Loan Repayment Program (SUD Workforce LRP).

According to HRSA, the most effective treatment for opioid addiction is a comprehensive approach that incorporates medication and behavioral health counseling. The program supports the recruitment and retention of health professionals needed in underserved areas to expand access to substance use disorder treatment and prevent overdose deaths.
