Tennessee anti-drug coalitions are working to reduce dependence on harmful and potentially lethal substances such as prescription drugs, alcohol, and tobacco. In partnership with the Hamilton County Coalition, researchers from Vanderbilt University Medical Center (VUMC) collect and analyze program demographics and outcomes. The Nu-Start program provides access to treatment and recovery services for individuals and families overcoming opioid dependency.
Carolyn Audet, PhD, MSci, associate director of the Center for Clinical Quality and Implementation Research and associate professor of Epidemiology and Health Policy leads the VUMC research team.
The project is supported by the Tennessee Department of Mental Health and Substance Abuse Services.
