The New York State Office of Alcoholism and Substance Abuse
Services held a Research Day.
The day was intended to (1)
promote dialog between research and evaluation staff, program
management/specialist staff, and other OASAS staff by
presenting findings (including preliminary findings) and
eliciting questions and ideas for refining analyses; (2)
provide the opportunity for research and evaluation staff at
various levels to organize and present findings to audiences
with a variety of interests including policy, practice, and
general interest, rather than research per se; (3) provide an
opportunity for strengthening OASAS’ ongoing relationships
with academic faculty and students engaged in research
relevant to OASAS.
