With feedback from CRISM Atlantic members three areas were identified as important with respect to primary service needs and related research focus: Concurrent Disorders; Youth Substance Use; and Rural Access and Telehealth. To guide work in these areas, three Working Groups (WG) have been created. WGs will be responsible to help identify, support and monitor research projects, fully or partially funded, through WG funds.
CRISM Atlantic members identified three population-specific areas of importance: PWLLE; Indigenous Peoples; and Rural Access & Telehealth. To guide work within these areas, Advisory Councils (AC) were created. ACs will be responsible to inform the WG research projects to ensure projects are designed, conducted and that information is shared in a way that considers the population-specific areas.
