Learn how opioid use affects individuals in our first four 5-Key Model Phase 1 states - Florida, Kentucky, Pennsylvania, and Texas - as they leave incarceration and return home. Reentry is a high-risk time for those who use opioids and are diagnosed with opioid use disorders. Policy recommendations include infusing the Opioid Use Disorder Continuum of Care into correctional and community-based settings to increase screening, initiation, and retention of affected individuals into prevention or treatment services.
