Summary
This study tested a digital toolkit designed to help leaders in child welfare and substance use treatment agencies choose partners and build effective collaborations. Nine implementation support professionals in Ohio used the guide and rated how acceptable, appropriate, and feasible it was. The goal was to improve how agencies work together to support families affected by the opioid crisis.

What this could lead to
If successful, this guide could help agencies work together more effectively to support families affected by substance use and reduce child maltreatment.

This was a very small study (9 participants) focused on feasibility, not on direct outcomes for families. The guide may not work in other settings or lead to measurable improvements.
