SAMHSA Co-occurring Disorders Initiative (CODI)
Cloudburst has been selected by HHS SAMHSA to increase the quality of and access to integrated services for people with co-occurring mental health and substance abuse disorders through provision of support to the Center for Substance Abuse Treatment and the Center for Mental Health Services. According to results from SAMHSA’s 2003 National Survey on Drug Use and Health more than seven million people who suffer from at least one mental disorder also have a substance use disorder. Cloudburst serves as the evaluation lead for this project, and will assess the impact of the innovative Learning Community model of knowledge transfer used in the contract, as well as assessing satisfaction with information products and more traditional TA events. This work is being conducted under subcontract to Westat.
