Substance use disorder (SUD) is overrepresented among jail populations, significantly affecting individuals in custody, facility operations, and entire communities. Jails are obligated by law to provide adequate care and treatment for medical, mental health, and substance-related conditions; this care and treatment includes withdrawal management and the provision of medication-assisted treatment (MAT). These talking points are intended to help jail administrators accurately and effectively speak about SUD and its treatment when building support among community members, organizations, and leaders for withdrawal management and MAT implementation.
