This webinar developed by the SNJMATCOE aims to strengthen collaboration between OBATs/community‑based providers and Harm Reduction Centers (HRCs) within different counties across NJ. This will be a 90‑minutes session where 3 HRCs will present on their respective programs, share cases, examples of effective collaboration with prescribers, and participate in a combined Q&A panel discussion.

Participants will be able to:

1. Describe key components of HRC programming, including service models, client engagement strategies, and approaches to integrating harm reduction within clinical and community-based settings.
2. Compare at least three successful models of collaboration between Harm Reduction Centers and MOUD prescribers.
3. Apply best practices to strengthen or initiate partnerships within their own OBAT programs.

Speakers:

Georgette Shelton – South Jersey AIDS Alliance
