IDEAS Center Awarded
​National Institute on Drug Abuse Supplement

Kimberly Eaton Hoagwood, Ph.D., Cathy and Stephen Graham Professor and Vice Chair for Research in New York University’s Department of Child and Adolescent Psychiatry, NYU Langone Health, was recently awarded a $204,111 supplemental grant from the National Institute on Drug Abuse (NIDA). 

The additional funding will expand the work of the recently-funded ALACRITY Center, called IDEAS, and will be used to augment the Center’s first research project, which is examining state policymaking around children’s health and mental health. With this supplement, the Center will also be able to examine youth substance use, and develop tools to integrate scientific evidence into policymaking. This supplement is critically important because in many states in the nation, mental health and substance abuse agencies have been integrated, and, in the wake of the nation’s opioid crisis, states are seeking better ways to treat youth and families affected, including integrating evidence-based practices (EBPs), such as medication assisted treatment (MAT), into their portfolio of state-delivered or purchased services. ​

​The Center’s first research project, A National Survey of State Policy Decisionmaking and Simulation, is co-led by Drs. Mary McKay, Dean, Brown School of Social Work at Washington University, and Jonathan Purtle, Assistant Professor at Drexel University’s Dornsife School of Public Health.  It combines classic survey techniques with systems science to build a prototype agent-based model to identify modifiable targets — or levers that states can “push and pull” — to enhance the use of children’s mental health research evidence in state policymaking.
