Findings/Key points
As SOS programs have expanded in Canada, questions regarding their effectiveness and safety continue to arise. Therefore, we conducted a rapid review of qualitative and quantitative peer-reviewed and grey literature publications that describe the clinical outcomes of SOS programs, as well as the perceptions of clients and providers involved in the provision of these programs. In total, we identified and synthesized evidence from 20 publications.
