Dual Disorders Research Program


The Center's Dual Disorders Research Program is a Social Work Research Development Program funded by the National Institute on Drug Abuse (NIDA). The Center's multidisciplinary research team addresses the facilitators and barriers to treatment among individuals with co-occurring substance use and mental health disorders (dual disorders). Three pilot studies funded by NIDA investigate stages of change, social networks, and family caregiving in low-income women with dual diagnoses. The projects include the following:
