National Institute on Alcohol Abuse and Alcoholism Strategic Plan to Address
Health Disparities The National Institute on Alcohol Abuse and Alcoholism (NIAAA) Strategic Plan to Address Health Disparities is part of a major effort within the National Institutes of Health to reduce differences in the incidence, prevalence, mortality, and burden of diseases and other adverse health conditions that exist among specific population groups in the United States. Important to the mission of NIAAA is research designed to identify racial and ethnic disparities in the causes and consequences of alcohol-use disorders and to develop treatment and prevention methods to ameliorate them. The Institute will take specific actions to promote interest in health disparities research and to build the capacity in minority serving institutions to conduct alcohol research and address alcohol-related issues. Activities to increase and improve outreach are included. The NIAAA plan was developed with input from program administrators, research scientists, and interest groups. We are interested in receiving comments on this document. Please send comments to the NIAAA Web Master (niaaaweb-r@exchange.nih.gov).
