HEAL Initiative: Translating Addiction Epidemiology, Prevention, Treatment, and Recovery Research into Practice (R61/R33 - Clinical Trial Optional)

This grant supports action-oriented research to translate addiction epidemiology, prevention, treatment and recovery findings into practice, especially to address the opioid crisis and overdose events. It funds studies at any level—individual, provider, organizational, community, or system—using methods such as identifying malleable factors, testing interventions, implementation strategies, collaborative data science, or researcher-decision-maker collaborations.
