# Center for Prevention Implementation Methodology for Drug Abuse and HIV (Ce-PIM)

> **NIH NIH P30** · NORTHWESTERN UNIVERSITY · 2020 · $171,041

## Abstract

Abstract
This administrative supplement to the NIDA funded Center for Prevention
Implementation Methodology for Drug Abuse and HIV is submitted to address the
urgent crises in delivering evidence-based interventions for preventing the spread of
HIV and preventing opioid related deaths due to the policies and practices now being
undertaken in immediate response to the COVID-19 pandemic. Because there is such
limited research to draw upon in this crisis, we need to rely on innovative modeling
approaches that build on Ce-PIM's existing work, as we expand to meet the new
challenges addressed by local governmental agencies and service delivery systems.
We are partnering formally in this application with the Pinellas County Opioid Task
Force, which includes the county's Health Department, Human Services, Operation
PAR and the University of South Florida. We will adapt two existing agent-based
models/ decision support tools to provide decision support to local governmental and
system leaders on optimizing a set of interventions to reduce HIV spread and opioid
related deaths in Pinellas County where these systems have been heavily impacted by
COVID-19. These models are built alongside the Task Force and emphasize the
impact on vulnerable populations, including the homeless, and on delivery of
medications for opioid use disorder.
