Provide funding for research or implementation projects focused on children diagnosed with Neonatal Abstinence Syndrome (“NAS”) at birth or within the 4 weeks of birth through exposure to prenatal opioids during their mother’s pregnancy. Grant recipients will use the grant funds to create NAS Abatement Programs that focus on preparing children with a history of NAS to be ready to enter or to succeed in school, early intervention to improve outcomes for mother and child, and providing resources and solutions for the NAS community.
