HEAL Wants Your Ideas

The NIH HEAL Initiative is conducting an Idea Exchange, “Moving HEAL Research Into Action,” to gather public input that will help shape future directions for the initiative. 

HEAL is focused on advancing pain management and finding solutions to address the opioid crisis. All are invited to participate, including the many individuals and organizations on the front lines of the opioid crisis—treatment providers, advocates and families, law enforcement professionals, first responders, policymakers and government health officials. Practitioners, join the conversation. Share your expertise about how research can inform solutions to improve pain management and the prevention and treatment of opioid misuse and addiction. Submission deadline is June 1.
