Event Host

JBS International is pleased to announce a new Technical Assistance opportunity for grantees: Office Hours with Dr. C.

  • Office Hours with Dr. C is a monthly opportunity on the second Wednesday of each month at 10:00 am ET to discuss questions related to medication for opioid use disorder (MOUD) with a physician expert and hear what your peers around the country are asking.
  • This opportunity is completely participant driven, so please come prepared with questions, comments and /or concerns that you are experiencing. 
  • Registration is required for each session so that participants can receive resources discussed during the session and ongoing TA needs can be coordinated with the grantee and TA provider.
  • The audience for this technical assistance opportunity is people directly or indirectly involved in designing and delivering MOUD services using HRSA Rural Health Network Development, Quality Improvement Award, Rural Health Care Services Outreach Program, Rural Health Care Coordination Program, or Telehealth Network Grant Program grant funds through their affiliation with grantees or coalition members, so please disseminate this invitation widely. HRSA RCORP grantees are also invited to participate.
  • The flexible, open discussion format of Office Hours with Dr. C will allow participants easy, as needed access to an MOUD expert on a dependable schedule. This forum allows participants to drop in and drop out as needed.
  • Only Zoom audio will be used for this activity, to make it accessible by phone or computer audio and reduce demands on local internet bandwidth.  We do not plan on having video enabled.
  • We encourage you to participate in sessions via the phone numbers provided in your Zoom invite.  
  • You will receive an email confirmation that will include the link for the Office Hours once you register. Please be sure to save the registration confirmation email, as it holds the call-in number needed to connect via audio and participation instructions.
