Multi-Level Stigma Intervention for Mental Health Services

NCT06200012 NA COMPLETED

This cluster randomized trial develops and pilot tests a multi-level substance use stigma intervention that leverages organizational policy and professional education to address structural and professional drivers of stigma in outpatient mental health (MH) services. The investigators will generate preliminary data to determine whether adding an organizational policy to a professional stigma training may reduce measures of provider-based stigma towards substance use and improve care quality and patient outcomes to a greater degree than simply conducting training alone. The investigators hypothesize that providers at a MH site implementing an organizational policy change in addition to providing professional training will demonstrate greater improvement to health services for people who use drugs compared to a site where providers receive training alone.
