The National Institute on Drug Abuse (NIDA) is launching a working group to the National Advisory Council on Drug Abuse (NACDA) consisting of people with lived or living experience (PWLLE) with drug use.

Primary purpose of the group: to advise on strategies for enhancing and increasing meaningful engagement of PWLLE with drug use in NIDA-funded research.

NIDA is seeking workgroup members who identify as having current or former experience with substance use or substance use disorder, or as a family member or caregiver of someone who does.
