Description:
Substance use continues to pose significant public health, workplace, and forensic challenges, with evolving drug trends demanding adaptable and evidence-based testing strategies. This presentation examines the impact and scale of substance use, emphasizing the importance of selecting testing approaches that align with the purpose and context of testing. Various analytical approaches and specimen types will be discussed, highlighting the benefits, limitations, and interpretive considerations of each. The session will underscore how strategic testing design and interpretation can improve accuracy, fairness, and decision-making in addressing substance use.

Attendees will learn how selecting the right testing strategy based on purpose, matrix, and method can improve accuracy, compliance, and decision-making. Additionally, attendees will gain practical insights into the benefits and limitations of current testing approaches to strengthen their programs and client outcomes.

Description:
A positive drug screen leaves an officer unsure whether use is new. A client misses court despite having a supervision plan. Meanwhile, routine requests bring people into an office where staff are already stretched. What could your team change between contacts to get better information, reach clients sooner, and focus on time where it matters?

This webinar puts three practical changes to the test. First, practitioners will show how they reconsidered drug and alcohol testing to answer the questions their programs faced, including how one court approached lingering positive urine screens. Next, the panel will examine how reminders, remote check-ins, and access to local resources can help clients meet requirements without adding unnecessary office visits. Finally, a program operations expert will walk through the work required to make either approach function: who reviews information, who contacts the client, what happens when a client cannot use the technology, and how the team knows whether the change is helping.

Attendees will make a choice at the start of each scenario, then compare it with what programs tried, what changed, and what limitations they encountered. They will leave with a simple action plan for one gap in their own program: the change to test, the person responsible for responding, and a measure of success.
