PODCAST: Recovery Science Speaks
In this episode, Drs. Amy Mericle, Sarah E. Zemore, and Leonard Jason explore the critical role recovery housing plays in supporting long-term recovery, particularly for individuals using medications for opioid use disorder (MOUD). Drawing on their recent study, they unpack how stable, supportive housing environments can enhance treatment outcomes, strengthen social support, and improve medication adherence.
