Principal Investigator(s): Gregory Aarons, Ph.D. UC San Diego

Co-Investigators(s): Mark Ehrhart, Ph.D. Univeristy of Central Florida, Marisa Sklar, Ph.D. UC San Diego

This project will test an implementation strategy that seeks to align system, organization, and clinic leadership and strategies to implement and sustain an evidence-based practice (EBP) for substance use disorders. The Leadership and Organizational Change for Implementation - System Level (LOCI-SL) seeks to improve implementation leadership, climate, provider attitudes and behaviors, and EBP fidelity for enhanced client engagement in services and outcomes. LOCI-SL will be tested in integrated mental health and substance use disorder treatment clinics across the state of Oregon while engaging the Oregon Health Authority, the Alcohol and Drug Policy Commission, and managed care organizations.
