Building Social and Structural Connections for the Prevention of OUD Among Youth Experiencing Homelessness: An RCT Examining Biopsychosocial Mechanisms New Strategies to Prevent and Treat Opioid Addiction Preventing Opioid Use Disorder NIDA OHIO STATE UNIVERSITY FORD, JODI (contact); SLESNICK, NATASHA Columbus, OH 2023
NOFO Title: HEAL Initiative: Preventing Opioid Misuse and Co-Occurring Conditions by Intervening on Social Determinants (R01 - Clinical Trials Optional)
NOFO Number: RFA-DA-23-051
Summary:

Multiple social determinants affect the health of youth experiencing homelessness. These include a lack of stable safe housing, income, education, food security, restricted access to services, as well as discrimination, victimization, and social isolation. This project will test the use of prevention efforts to address the factors that may be embedded within systems that serve this population, such as drop-in centers. The research will gather generalizable information about helping these youth along with cost estimates to inform future implementation efforts.

Person-Centered Quality Measurement and Management in a System for Addictions Treatment in New York State Translation of Research to Practice for the Treatment of Opioid Addiction Optimizing the Quality, Reach, and Impact of Addiction Services NIDA NEW YORK UNIVERSITY SCHOOL OF MEDICINE NEIGHBORS, CHARLES J (contact); BURKE, CONSTANCE; LINCOURT, PATRICIA New York, NY 2023
NOFO Title: HEAL Initiative: Research to Foster an Opioid Use Disorder Treatment System Patients Can Count On (RM1 - Clinical Trial Optional)
NOFO Number: RFA-DA-23-046
Summary:

The number of drug overdoses in New York continues to rise. In response, the New York State Office of Addiction Services and Supports (OASAS) is promoting approaches that embrace person-centered care, evidence-based practices, equitable treatment, and harm-reduction principles. In this project, researchers will partner with OASAS to build a quality measurement and management research center that provides performance feedback to support and encourage leadership and staff of treatment clinics to improve practice. The center will also publicize quality measures to ensure public accountability.

Onsite PTSD Treatment to Improve MOUD Outcomes (OPTIMO): A Hybrid Type 1 Effectiveness-Implementation Trial of Harm Reduction PTSD Care at Syringe Service Programs Translation of Research to Practice for the Treatment of Opioid Addiction Optimizing the Quality, Reach, and Impact of Addiction Services NIDA CITY COLLEGE OF NEW YORK LOPEZ-CASTRO, TERESA (contact); FOX, AARON D New York, NY 2023
NOFO Title: HEAL Initiative: Translating Research to Practice to End the Overdose Crisis (R61/R33 Clinical Trial Optional)
NOFO Number: RFA-DA-23-053
Summary:

People who inject drugs often have posttraumatic stress disorder (PTSD). Co-occurring PTSD puts these individuals at increased risk of illicit opioid use, opioid use disorder, overdose, HIV, and hepatitis C virus infection. This project will adapt, with input from the community, an evidence-based PTSD treatment program for people with both opioid use disorder and PTSD who are participating in a syringe service program. The treatment will then be tested in multiple syringe service programs to determine its potential for improving outcomes for these individuals who are often marginalized in traditional care.

Automated Assessment of Maternal Sensitivity to Infant Distress: Leveraging Wearable Sensors for Substance Use Disorder Prevention and Research Enhanced Outcomes for Infants and Children Exposed to Opioids Virtual Assessments to Understand Developmental Trajectories of Substance Use Exposure NIDA UNIVERSITY OF TEXAS AT AUSTIN DE BARBARO, KAYA Austin, TX 2023
NOFO Title: HEAL Initiative: Development and validation of virtual assessments to study children and caregivers in their natural environment (R01- Clinical Trial Not Allowed)
NOFO Number: RFA-DA-23-050
Summary:

High-quality parent-infant interactions set the stage for secure parent-child attachment, self-reliance, and children’s ability to flexibly solve problems and “bounce back” from difficulties. This constellation of behaviors reduces the risk of developing substance use disorders later in life. This project will develop algorithms that use data from wearable sensors, trained separately for English- and Spanish-speaking families, to assess the quality of early mother-infant interactions objectively, automatically, and remotely in natural home environments, with the goal of developing tools to facilitate identification and prevention of early risks for substance use disorders.
