The COVID-19 pandemic has made our country's addiction crisis worse. More than 93,000 Americans lost their lives to an overdose in 2020. That's a new, heartbreaking record.
Even though addiction is a treatable illness, we needlessly lose thousands of lives due to a nationwide shortage of trustworthy, affordable, evidence-based addiction care.
As the overdose crisis continues to ravage communities across the country, our federal government has a critical opportunity to help.
Tell Your Reps: Make Addiction Training Standard For Doctors
Tell Your Reps: Make Addiction Training Standard For Doctors
The Medication Access and Training Expansion (MATE) Act is designed to ensure that all DEA-controlled medication prescribers have a baseline knowledge of how to prevent addiction and how to identify, treat, and manage patients who have substance use disorders.

Addiction treatment is currently not a focus in many medical schools, meaning most doctors do not know how to identify or treat substance use disorder, despite the public health emergency that it is. That’s why we need this legislation.
Contact your Members of Congress now and urge them to pass the MATE Act!
