The role of the Peer Facilitator is to lead weekly or bi-weekly support groups with study participants who are being treated for opioid use disorder and chronic pain. Retention in treatment is one of the most critical problems facing patients in office-based addiction treatment, and strategies to improve retention are urgently needed.

TREETOP works on developing effective, equitable, and sustainable interventions for chronic pain and OUD with a focus on health equity. What you'll do: The role of the Peer Facilitator is to lead weekly or bi-weekly support groups with study participants who are being treated for opioid use disorder and chronic pain. Group sessions will take place remotely either via Zoom or phone call. The Peer Facilitator will encourage discussion, help members navigate conflict, and offer support from a perspective of successful pain and OUD management. They will also be expected to conduct reminder calls, take notes, and complete light documentation after group sessions. Additionally, Peer Facilitators will attend meetings and training with members of the study team.
