Abstract Summary

Despite the enormous burden of disease attributable to harmful drug and alcohol use, major challenges remain in implementing evidence-based interventions for substance use (SU) and substance use disorders. While notable research advances have been made in understanding effective pharmacological and psychosocial approaches to SUD intervention, many evidence-based approaches remain under-utilized. This proposal describes a Prairie region network of researchers, service providers, people with lived experience and policy makers. The goal of this network is to conduct pragmatic clinical trials and implementation science research to identify new interventions and facilitate scale-up of effective interventions to maximize population impact.
