The RWJF Clinical Scholars Program-funded Milwaukee PROMPT (Prevention of Opioid Misuse through Peer Training) project used a peer-delivered prevention curriculum developed by input from Veterans and community members to prevent opioid misuse and OUD in a subset of the Milwaukee Veteran population. The project allowed for nuanced perspectives that fostered a deeper appreciation of the service gaps within the Veteran population by using a community engaged research (CEnR) approach. The targeted population for this project were Veterans experiencing OUD; however, foresee that this framework could eventually serve as a model for engaging with other communities and at-risk populations. The Milwaukee PROMPT project offers an important example of how existing community-academic partnerships can serve as platforms for increasingly complex interventions and research.
