Summary:

Understanding municipal policies that influence implementation of effective evidence-based practices (EBPs) as well as effective strategies for working with municipal groups may inform local efforts to translate EBPs. Just as important, engaging with local stakeholders may help to facilitate the long-term sustainability of EBPs. This can only occur if diverse local actors in municipal governance are thinking about health and behavioral health in the context of municipal planning and policy. Building from research related opioid use disorder and the risk environment, built environment, and zoning, this research will work to support coalition-based approach currently implemented by the HEALing Communities Study. The research aims to develop an understanding of local policies that may affect implementation of community action plans in the HEALing Communities Study Massachusetts communities.
