| Abstract | Purpose: This study evaluated the implementation and outcomes of a multisite initiative to identify and intervene in adolescent substance use across the many settings where youth interact. This paper focuses on the implementation and intermediate outcomes of the initiative, while others in the supplement address impact and ultimate outcomes. Methods: A mixed-methods cross-grantee evaluation was conducted from 2014 to 2019 among 56 recipients of funding from the Conrad N. Hilton Foundation to implement screening, brief intervention, and referral to treatment (SBIRT) across more than 1,266 youth-facing settings. Qualitative and quantitative data were collected from grantees on a quarterly basis, as well as from grantee proposals, progress reports, monthly grantee monitoring calls, and survey findings. Results: Grantees reported increased capacity to provide SBIRT to youth across various settings: pediatric and primary care practices, community behavioral health organizations, juvenile justice programs, schools, and community-based organizations. Collectively, grantees screened 141,230 youth for substance use, 12,272 received a brief intervention, and 2,212 were referred to treatment. As part of the initiative, grantees provided SBIRT training to over 37,000 nursing and social work students, medical residents, addiction medicine fellows, and others. Implementation challenges included fitting screening into the workflow of primary care settings, confidentiality and consent in schools, reimbursement, and lack of specialist providers to refer to for substance use disorder treatment. Intermediate outcomes collected include total numbers of youth screened, received a brief intervention, and/or referred to more intensive treatment based on their screening scores. Conclusions: Research on SBIRT in adolescents has been limited to date despite positive outcomes reported in adults. This mixed-methods evaluation of an initiative to expand SBIRT implementation demonstrates feasibility of expanding access to substance use screening and intervention for youth across multiple settings and identifies challenges of implementation that differ somewhat based on settings. |
