The American Association for the Treatment of Opioid Dependence works with federal agencies and state substance abuse authorities concerning opioid treatment policy. The Association developed the State Methadone Guidelines (1993) and conjunction with the American Society of Addiction Medicine (ASAM) for the Center for Substance Abuse Treatment (CSAT).
The Association convenes national conferences on an eighteen-month cycle. These conferences focus on evidence-based clinical practice, current research breakthroughs and organizational developments affecting the current and future opioid treatment system. More than 46 states and 21 countries send representatives to this event. The National Institute on Drug Abuse (NIDA) in addition to SAMHSA/ CSAT and other federal agencies work to support a number of the activities of this conference, including international relations and domestic substance abuse policy. The State Opioid Treatment Authorities meet during this event, working through policy related issues in their respective states.
