Abstract
The National Institutes of Health (NIH) will award 12 grants to form the Justice Community Opioid Innovation Network (JCOIN) to support research on quality addiction treatment for opioid use disorder (OUD) in criminal justice settings nationwide, with a total of $155 million from the National Institute on Drug Abuse. One focus will be on finding new medications. There will be 10 research institutions and two centers. JCOIN is part of the NIH HEAL (Helping to End Addiction Long‐term) initiative launched last year. Funded institutions and the site locations are: the New York State Psychiatric Institute (New York), Baystate Medical Center (Massachusetts), Friends Research Institute Inc.
