A group of scientists, educators and practitioners committed to addressing substance use and addiction.
Motivated by the opioid epidemic that is deeply affecting communities across the nation, Penn State is consolidating its resources to address the opioid crisis and the larger problems of substance abuse in Pennsylvania and beyond via its newly launched Consortium on Substance Use and Addiction (CSUA). CSUA draws on the expertise of researchers, educators, and practitioners from Penn State campuses across the state to develop and implement effective programs, policies, and practices aimed at preventing and treating addiction and its spillover effects on children, families, and communities.
CSUA leverages Penn State University’s research, education, and outreach capacities to advance efforts in substance use and addiction prevention, treatment, and program implementation.
