SYRACUSE, N.Y. — Crouse Hospital will use a $100,000 grant to expand programs in its addiction-treatment services (ATS).

New York City–based Mother Cabrini Health Foundation awarded the funding. The grant will enable Crouse to expand programs first supported by the Cabrini Foundation in the years 2021 and 2022, the hospital said in its announcement.

The funding will support staff positions, staff training, outreach, transportation, and wellness activities developed for two specific patient groups — pregnant and parenting women and justice-involved individuals.

“This grant will allow Crouse ATS to expand 30-day outreach post-release to facilitate patients’ continued engagement in substance use disorder (SUD) counseling,” Monika Taylor, director of addiction treatment services, said.

Funding from the Mother Cabrini Health Foundation will also help to expand Crouse ATS gender-responsive treatment for pregnant and parenting women. ATS will provide “a road map” for treatment before and after delivery.

Crouse ATS provides programs to treat substance-use disorders (including opioid-use disorder) by “treating the whole person” and giving patients “as many tools as possible” to recover from addiction, Crouse Hospital said. Crouse will also use the funding to provide wellness activities to support patients’ treatment as well as training for staff to increase their skills in treating a range of patient populations.
