The Substance Abuse Policy Research Program (SAPRP), is designed to encourage experts in public health, law, political science, medicine, sociology, criminal justice, economics, psychology and other behavioral and policy sciences to address issues related to substance abuse. This will be the ninth round of funding for the program. In this round, up to $3.5 million will be available. Projects supported are expected to increase understanding of public and private policy interventions to prevent, treat and reduce the harm caused by the use of tobacco, alcohol and other drugs – including the advantages, disadvantages and potential impact of these policies.
