The Center for Dissemination & Implementation At Stanford (C-DIAS) and the Research Adoption Support Center (RASC) recently developed a set of implementation guides and measures to support researchers and anyone seeking to evaluate or implement a health care innovation.
The Helping to End Addiction Long-term® Initiative, or NIH HEAL Initiative®, Data2Action Program (HD2A) supports Innovation and Acceleration Projects that make data more real-time and useful to accelerate the implementation of evidence-based interventions for opioid use disorder and pain management. HD2A supports efforts across the four pillars of the HHS Overdose Prevention Strategy: Primary Prevention, Harm Reduction, Evidence-Based Treatment, and Recovery Support.
