Brief Summary: The study will evaluate the effectiveness of the Just Care for Families program in preventing Oregon Department of Human Services (ODHS)-involved parents in rural communities from escalating opioid and/or methamphetamine use and mental health disorders by disrupting the associated social determinants of health (SDOH). In addition, investigators will examine the impacts of SDOH on Just Care treatment and the associated costs from the perspective of provider clinics delivering Just Care. Just Care is a behavioral intervention for the treatment of parental substance abuse and child neglect for families involved in the child welfare system. Just Care involves treatment components, supported by ongoing purposeful engagement: (1) Substance use treatment; (2) Mental health treatment; (3) Parent management training; (4) Community building; (5) Systems Navigation; and (6) Addressing basic needs.
Detailed Description: This study provides multiple tests of the mechanisms by which Just Care for Families disrupts the effects of lifetime social determinants of health (SDOH) on ultimate outcomes of preventing escalation of opioid and/or methamphetamine use and suicide (ideation, intention, attempts). Just Care for Families 's effect on these outcomes is hypothesized to occur through two mechanisms of action: (1) improvement in malleable SDOH (direct targets of intervention) and (2) improvement in substance use and mental health problems (intermediate prevention outcomes). Analyses will examine whether the effects vary as a function of non-malleable external, structural SDOH, such as community poverty and healthcare service availability. Additionally, system dynamics will be used to examine patterns of influence between SDOH and Just Care for Families intervention targets, case outcomes, and associated costs.
