About the Addiction Mission Priority Setting Partnership
The Addiction Mission, led by the Office for Life Sciences, and key stakeholders are working together to gain a better understanding of the health and social needs of all people with addictions. The Addiction Mission Priority Setting Partnership (PSP) aims to identify key uncertainties regarding harm reduction, treatment and recovery of addictions from the perspective of those who are expert by experience, and professionals.
The Addiction Mission approached the James Lind Alliance to set up a PSP to to enable healthcare professionals, those people with experience of addictions or who use alcohol or drugs problematically, carers and families to work together to identify and prioritise research priorities. These priorities will be available for a range of funding bodies to inform their strategy regarding funding.
