Building a Sustainable National Infrastructure for Dissemination of Improved Behavioral Health Treatment Practices

NIATx is working on an NIH grant application to create an infrastructure and a network of providers to engage in research on dissemination and adoption of evidence-based practices. The current grant is limited to developing the infrastructure and network that will allow us to access future funds to conduct research. We are interested in having as many of you as we can participate in the network. Being part of the network will provide the opportunity, but not a guarantee, of participating in future projects.

If you are interested, we would like a letter of support by November 30. We have drafted a sample letter of support that you can cut and paste onto your letterhead.

We have also posted a draft of the grant application. Please feel free to comment or add your thoughts by writing to us at info@niatx.net.
