Southern New Jersey Medications for Addiction Treatment Center of Excellence

The Cooper Center for Healing, in partnership with the Rowan-Virtua NeuroMusculoskeletal Institute, administers the Southern New Jersey Medications for Addiction Treatment Center of Excellence (SNJMATCOE), an organization dedicated to educating and supporting health care providers interested in improving care for addiction across South Jersey. 

The SNJMATCOE was formed in 2019 by New Jersey Governor Phil Murphy to address the addiction and overdose crisis in the Garden State. The Northern New Jersey Medications for Addiction Treatment Center of Excellence (NNJMATCOE) was established at the same time to serve the state’s northern counties. The NNJMATCOE is administered by Rutgers University-New Brunswick. 

Center for Healing addiction experts hold educational lectures for providers throughout South Jersey, and offer opportunities for providers to shadow how addiction, especially opioid use disorder, is treated here at the Center for Healing. 
SNJMATCOE experts are available to visit other health systems to assess their treatment protocols and suggest improvements.
