The agency conducts several addiction-related surveys (e.g., National Mental Health Services Survey [N-MHSS], National Survey on Drug Use and Health [NSDUH], etc.) and collects other data (e.g., Drug Abuse Warning Network [DAWN]) relevant to this course.

The Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) collects original data on drug use trends, health consequences, etc. See especially their Wide-Ranging Online Data for Epidemiological Research (WONDER) and Youth Risk Behavior Surveillance System (YRBSS) datasets.
