The Addiction Technology Transfer Center (ATTC) Network is an international, multidisciplinary resource for professionals in the addictions treatment and recovery services field. A Network that started out 25 years ago, it is now comprised of 10 domestic Regional Centers, 6 International HIV Centers, 2 National Focus Areas, and one Network Coordinating Office. Through the ATTC National Coordinating Office award (FOA TI-17-005), the University of Missouri-Kansas City (UMKC) houses the ATTC Network Coordinating Office (NCO). The ATTC NCO provides leadership and support to the individual ATTCs and the specialized behavioral and primary healthcare workforces that provide substance use disorder (SUD) treatment and recovery support services. It also works closely with its sister Networks - the Mental Health Technology Transfer Center (MHTTC) and the Prevention Technology Transfer Center (PTTC) Network.

The ATTC NCO is a program in residence of the Collaborative to Advance Health Services located at the University of Missouri-Kansas City’s School of Nursing and Health Studies
