This Notice of Funding Opportunity (NOFO) encourages pilot work and preliminary research to support preparation for large-scale, rigorous trials that will guide the expansion of effective, non-stigmatizing overdose prevention, SUD treatment and recovery services for adolescents.
These studies
could include examining changes in risk behaviors associated with overdose (e.g., using alone, carrying/using Naloxone).
Outcomes of interest include but are not limited to harm reduction, recovery, treatment retention and effectiveness, quality of care, patient-centered outcomes, and implementation factors.
The goal of this NOFO is to develop interventions that address effective, non-stigmatizing overdose prevention, SUD treatment and recovery services for youth that are effective, practical, cost-effective, scalable, and sustainable.
