Evidence shows that medication-assisted treatment, or MAT – which combines behavioral therapies with FDA-approved medications during incarceration – can reduce the likelihood of an opioid overdose fatality.

Sheriff Peter Koutoujian and @msosheriff have developed a remarkable program to provide MAT to their inmates. Our county jails are an indispensable partner in ending the opioid overdose crisis. We know we cannot incarcerate our way out of this crisis. We must rehabilitate.
