Medication-Assisted Treatment (MAT) is an evidence-based approach used to treat individuals with substance use disorders, particularly opioid and alcohol dependence. It combines the use of FDA-approved medications—such as methadone, buprenorphine, or naltrexone—with counseling and behavioral therapies. The goal of MAT is to reduce withdrawal symptoms, cravings, and the risk of relapse, while helping individuals achieve long-term recovery. MAT is recognized for improving patient outcomes, reducing overdose deaths, and promoting sustained abstinence, offering a comprehensive treatment plan that addresses both the physical and psychological aspects of addiction.

Lunch is $25 or a $5 donation without lunch to Richmond Rotary Club is appreciated. Use the Lunch button in the upper right corner of the website (richmondcarotary.org) to pay for lunch or make a donation and fast-track the check-in process.
