Background:  Facilitating maternal-newborn involvement and care is critical for improving outcomes for perinatal individuals receiving opioid agonist therapy (OAT) and newborns experiencing Neonatal Abstinence Syndrome (NAS). Comprehensive education strategies are needed to prepare pregnant individuals receiving OAT for navigating the perinatal period. Objectives:  Identify facilitators to successful care of perinatal individuals receiving OAT and newborns experiencing NAS via interviews with perinatal individuals and healthcare providers. The goal of identifying this information is to inform a future educational tool development. Methods:  Ten perinatal individuals receiving OAT and ten healthcare providers participated in interviews conducted via phone or video conference using semi-structured, open-ended questions. Data were analyzed separately for the two groups and later merged across samples using a qualitative descriptive content analysis approach to identify themes. Results:  Under the overarching theme of empowerment to improve outcomes for perinatal women, four themes arose from perinatal and provider interviews: 1) Preparation for Child Protective Services (CPS) involvement, 2) Healthcare providers shape experience through stigma and support 3) Caring for newborns with NAS, and 4) Managing health and resources during postpartum. Conclusion:  Perinatal participants emphasized the importance of self-advocacy while navigating healthcare and social systems. Providers highlighted the importance of communicating expectations to empower patients. Education is needed for pregnant individuals receiving OAT on what to expect during pregnancy and postpartum, as well as for providers to help them optimally support their perinatal patients receiving OAT.
