Canadian Research Initiative in Substance Misuse (CRISM)

CRISM is a 5-year initiative designed to facilitate communication and collaboration among addiction service providers, researchers, and policy-makers. The goals are: identify and/or develop the most appropriate clinical and community-based interventions for substance misuse/addiction; provide evidence to support the enhancement of prevention and treatment services regarding substance misuse/addiction to decision makers and service providers; and support improvement in the quality of care and quality of life for Canadians living with substance misuse/addiction.
