A research project funded by the National Institute on Drug Abuse to study developmental outcomes in children affected by neonatal opioid withdrawal syndrome, focusing on positive childhood experiences and community engagement.
Description
This project aims to identify positive childhood experiences (PCEs) associated with optimal developmental outcomes in children with a history of neonatal opioid withdrawal syndrome (NOWS). It involves community-engaged research, a longitudinal study design, and assessment of PCEs and adverse childhood experiences (ACEs) to inform future interventions. The study leverages an established cohort and includes collaboration with experienced mentors.
