This presentation will describe a program of research focused on increasing the uptake of effective health services for persons with or at risk of substance use disorders. At the end of the presentation, attendees will be able to: (a) define key concepts in dissemination and implementation science; (b) describe efforts to increase access to addiction health services using an array of implementation frameworks, strategies, and outcomes; and (c) identify key resources for integrating dissemination and implementation science principles into their own work.
