A national grantmaking foundation inspiring and accelerating action to end the nation's opioid and drug overdose crisis.
About us
The Foundation for Opioid Response Efforts (FORE) was founded in 2018 as an independent, private, national, grantmaking foundation focused solely on addressing the nation’s opioid epidemic. Our vision is to inspire and accelerate action to end this crisis. Now more than ever, it is critical to think creatively, test new approaches, and enhance and expand activities proven to prevent and treat opioid use disorder. FORE’s mission is to convene and support partners advancing patient-centered, innovative, evidence-based solutions in four key areas: Provider education, payer strategies, policy initiatives, and public awareness. FORE Grantmaking --------------------------------------- We are committed to funding a diversity of projects that contribute solutions to the epidemic at national, state, and community levels. We will consider grant requests through Request for Proposals posted on our website, as well as commission work for specific programs, from U.S.-based 501(c)(3) organizations. FORE Partnerships and Programs --------------------------------------- FORE will explore a range of activities, including research, community outreach, trainings, convenings, and information dissemination. We welcome the opportunity to explore partnerships and collaborations with all who are dedicated to furthering our goal of accelerating solutions to end the opioid epidemic. FORE Leadership --------------------------------------- Our leadership and staff have the expertise and passion for applying innovation and evidence-based science to significant public health challenges. By partnering and supporting exceptional efforts in the U.S., we strive to make a meaningful impact on the epidemic. For more information, please visit ForeFdn.org.

Leading medical groups advise hospitals to use questionnaires instead of universal drug tests. But hospital drug testing — and reporting — of labor and delivery patients remains ubiquitous. 'The system is primed for a report,' said #FOREgrantee Dr. Mishka Terplan, an OB-GYN in Maryland and a leading researcher on substance use disorders during pregnancy. 'To slow it down, or to stop it, takes effort.'" Read more: https://lnkd.in/eeBGXVnm
