FORE released a Request for Proposals (RFP) aimed at specific projects that bring an innovative approach to long-standing and complex issues related to stemming the tide of the nation’s opioid crisis. This RFP targets projects which can explore and/or evaluate new “outside-the-box” ideas, bring together approaches from several diverse fields and engage multi-disciplinary, cross-sector teams to solve some of the crisis’s most intractable problems. This opportunity will focus on projects in the following three areas, which, based on discussions with experts in the field, are widely recognized challenges to adequately address the opioid crisis with few examples of how to approach differently to accelerate improvements in reducing overdoses, increasing access to treatment, and supporting long-term recovery:
- Professional Education and Training
- Timely and Actionable Data
- Supporting the Transition from Treatment to Recovery
