Overview

Bridge<https://bridgetotreatment.org/> is a program of the Public Health Institute (PHI)<https://www.phi.org/> that works across the health care system to expand access to low-barrier addiction treatment and sexual and reproductive health care, and to advance health equity. Our largest program, CA Bridge<https://bridgetotreatment.org/addiction-treatment/ca-bridge/>, has supported more than 290 hospitals since 2018 to implement medications for addiction treatment (MAT) in the emergency department (ED) based on the CA Bridge model for 24/7 low-barrier access to evidence-based addiction treatment.



Our new initiative, CA Bridge Connect<https://bridgetotreatment.org/addiction-treatment/ca-bridge/ca-bridge-connect/>, extends this work beyond the ED through a helpline that connects people living with substance use disorders, and their families and care providers, to trained navigators who link callers to local providers offering immediate MAT, overdose prevention, and other resources.



The CA Bridge Connect<https://bridgetotreatment.org/addiction-treatment/ca-bridge/ca-bridge-connect/> Intern will support outreach, communications, and engagement efforts to sustain and expand the program’s presence across multiple counties in California. This includes assisting with the dissemination of materials, supporting relationship growth with local partners and volunteers, and helping to build systems for ongoing engagement.
