The National Institute on Drug Abuse (NIDA) invites applications for cooperative agreement participants (multiple Research Centers and one coordinating center) to collaborate in developing and testing implementation strategies and associated measures to improve the continuum of substance abuse prevention and treatment services delivered to youth under juvenile justice supervision. Awardees will develop and execute collaborative multisite studies across a variety of community-based supervision settings including juvenile probation, truancy and teen courts, and adolescent drug courts.
Department of Health and Human Services announces funding Opportunity having title, “Translational Research on Interventions for Adolescents in the Legal System: TRIALS (U01)” under Funding Opportunity Announcement (FOA) Number RFA-DA-13-009.
Activity Code U01 Research Project – Cooperative Agreements
Research undertaken by the cooperative is expected to contribute both to implementation science and to the effective delivery of evidence-based substance abuse interventions within real-world practice settings. These goals will be accomplished through the development and testing of measures and methods to support the successful implementation of substance abuse and HIV prevention and treatment services in juvenile justice settings.
It is critical that applicants follow the instructions in the SF 424 (R&R) Application Guide, except where instructed to do otherwise (in this FOA or in a Notice from the NIH Guide for Grants and Contracts). Conformance to all requirements (both in the Application Guide and the FOA) is required and strictly enforced.
This initiative is intended to support a program of research on how juvenile justice systems can effectively implement a continuum of evidence-based substance abuse and HIV prevention and treatment services for youth under community supervision.
Application Due Date(s) November 28, 2012, by 5:00 PM local time of applicant organization
