Synopsis
The National Institute on Drug Abuse seeks to support pilot and feasibility studies in preparation for efficacy, effectiveness and/or services research trials. Topics may include:1) developing interventions to prevent substance use, misuse or progression to disorder, 2) substance use prevention, treatment or recovery services research, including comorbid pain, medical and mental health disorders, 3) HIV eradication research, including implementation science, prevention, treatment and recovery in substance use settings/populations.
Projects may address information gaps, strengthen stakeholder partnerships, or pilot test interventions. Activities might include intervention development/adaptation; assessing intervention or service model acceptability and feasibility; and development of measures, materials, or methods for the future trial. Preliminary data is not required. A well-defined theory of change or logic model is expected. Applicants must engage relevant end users in study design, execution, and interpretation (e.g., policymakers, state and local decision makers, practitioners, individuals with lived/living experience, families, youth, and community members).
Applications are not being solicited at this time. This notice is to allow applicants time to develop collaborations and responsive projects. Grant authorities that allow this forecast are 42 U.S.C. §§ 241 and 284.
