A recent study found that medication treatment and mutual help group participation were each associated with more days of abstinence from illicit opioids after jail release. Their combined benefits were less clear and varied across follow-up periods. For ISSUP practitioners, the findings highlight the value of connecting treatment, recovery support and justice services during re-entry. The study does not establish causation, and findings from this US sample may not apply equally in other settings.

ISSUP’s 2026 conference session on intersectoral collaboration explored how health, justice and community services can work together to help people access and stay connected to appropriate support. Presentations from Thailand, Kenya and Ghana, alongside an introduction to deflection, highlighted clearer referral pathways, shared responsibilities, workforce wellbeing and earlier opportunities for care. These themes connected with the wider conference discussions on evidence-informed practice, youth prevention, recovery and faith-based support. Members were encouraged to adapt the learning to their roles and local circumstances, involve people using services in improvements, and assess changes in health, relationships and everyday life alongside service activity. The session recording offers a starting point for further learning, discussion across professions and practical collaboration through ISSUP National Chapters and professional networks.
