NIDA Issues FOAs on HEALing Communities Study

NIDA recently issued two funding opportunities for cooperative agreements to support components of the HEALing Communities Study—an integrated approach to test interventions for opioid misuse and addiction in communities hit hard by the opioid crisis. This study is part of the recently launched NIH initiative Helping to End Addiction Long-term (HEAL), a trans-agency, multi-faceted effort that uses science to bring hope to families and communities affected by the opioid crisis. NIH partnered with the Substance Abuse and Mental Health Services Administration to launch this study.
