DEFINITIONS Opioid or other substance use prevention education teaches individuals the skills and knowledge to avoid substance use, misuse, and addiction by focusing on the risks of substance use, building positive life skills, and promoting healthy choices. It utilizes comprehensive, often interactive, and evidence-based programs that go beyond simple information delivery, including skill-building in areas like decision-making and stress management. Opioid or other substance use treatment services usually offer individual, group, or family therapy sessions and typically focus on understanding the nature of addiction, becoming drug-free, and preventing relapse. Opioid and other substance use testing looks for the presence or absence of specific drugs in a biological sample, such as urine. As a tool in substance use treatment programs, drug testing can monitor a program participant’s progress and inform their treatment. Opioid or other substance recovery services include wrap-around services, such as care coordination, mentoring, coaching, educational support, job readiness and training, public transportation, and other services to support and sustain recovery. Caregiver engagement refers to programs and strategies designed to build partnerships with and provide support to family and unpaid caregivers, integrating them as active partners in the care of youth or family members. These services aim to address caregivers' unique needs, offer practical and emotional support, provide education and resources, and improve communication between caregivers, recipients of care or services, and providers with the aim of enhancing overall care or service outcomes. Family support services are community-based resources that assist families in promoting their members' well-being and stability. Examples include counseling, peer mentoring, navigation of social services, respite care, and support for families in caring for a child with a developmental or behavioral challenge. Family reunification services provide support to children separated from their families and to the families themselves, aiming to safely and appropriately reunite them by addressing the circumstances of the separation and strengthening family bonds. These services might include resources like counseling, case management, housing assistance, education, or legal services. Youth mental healthcare refers to a range of therapeutic strategies used to address mental illnesses, mental health conditions, and behavioral health issues, including psychotherapy, medication, support groups, and lifestyle changes. These approaches are often combined to create a more effective recovery plan. Youth development programs are structured initiatives that support the positive growth of young people by building their social, emotional, and cognitive competencies. Rather than focusing solely on preventing risky behaviors, these programs focus on nurturing individual strengths and potential to prepare youth for adulthood. Common examples include after-school programs, mentoring, sports leagues, and educational workshops, which foster skills like leadership, communication, resilience, and community involvement Community coordination is a collaborative process where groups in the community work together to identify community needs, share resources, and implement solutions to improve overall community well-being.
