NIDA continues to support and conduct research to develop and implement safe, effective, and desirable treatment strategies that support individuals’ long-term goals. 
  • NIDA funds a broad research portfolio aimed at increasing access to high quality, evidence-based treatment tailored for specific populations, including adolescents, people in justice settings, and people with other mental health concerns.
