ABSTRACT This paper details how innovative collaboration can break down barriers to service for opioid-affected families in a rural northern state, addressing the medical needs of infants receiving care as well as supporting ongoing well-being for their adult caregivers. In so doing, the program provides a model for addressing potential disparities rooted in dimensions of social class related to rurality. Consistent with this special issue, social class is broadly viewed as the intersectionality between access or barriers to power rooted in economics, education, politics, employment, and aspects of diversity and identity such as culture, gender, sexual orientation, rurality, or language, as examples.
