Who We Are

The National Institute on Drug Abuse (NIDA) is part of the National Institutes of Health (NIH), a U.S. Department of Health and Human Services component.

NIDA's mission is to lead the Nation in bringing the power of science to bear on drug abuse and addiction. This charge has two critical components: The first is the strategic support and conduct of research across a broad range of disciplines. The second is to ensure the rapid and effective dissemination and use of the results of that research to significantly improve drug abuse and addiction prevention, treatment, and policy.

The information on the website is organized into areas of interest for researchers, medical & health professionals, patients & families, parents & teachers, and students & young adults.  Publications are available on a variety of addiction and drug abuse topics.
