These stakeholders play an active role in identifying research needs and priorities related to substance use and its impacts. In this context, the CRISM Quebec Node supports the translation of scientific evidence into real-world practice, helping to advance the development, adaptation, and implementation of innovative and relevant programs, interventions, and treatment approaches. NAVIGATION Why Provide a Research Development Program for Our Members? Categories of Eligible Research Activities Frequently Asked Questions Past Editions Objectives 01 Improve practices for individuals and groups affected by substance use\u2013related challenges. 02 Strengthen the evidence base to support innovation and informed decision-making. 03 Support the research community by providing funding opportunities that promote innovation and knowledge generation. Why Provide a ResearchDevelopment Programfor Our Members? 01 Encourage national and international collaborations among Node members. 02 Support members in the design and development of effective research protocols. 03 Establish mechanisms to identify regional research priorities. 04 Help members navigate an increasingly competitive funding landscape. While research grants are often pursued by members who are already familiar with the funding process, we strongly encourage all members to submit eligible projects and research protocols for the Research Development Program funding. The research team is available to collaborate with and support members throughout the proposal development process.\u00a0 Join the CRISM Quebec Node The Research Development Program is available exclusively to members of the CRISM Quebec Node. We encourage all eligible researchers, trainees, clinicians, and community partners to join the Node and take advantage of the opportunities and support offered through the program. Become a Quebec Node Member Categories of EligibleResearch Activities type 1 Project Development Generate preliminary data and support structured activities, including cross-sectoral consultations and data collection or management initiatives, to facilitate the development of new research protocols. type 2 New research protocol Develop a new research protocol for submission to a recognized funding agency. type 3 Protocol Enhancement and Resubmission Refine research protocols that have been submitted to competitive funding programs and highly rated, but not selected for funding. Funding of up to $10,000 is available for emerging projects (Types 1 and 2). Promising projects (Type 3) may be eligible for up to $15,000 in funding. The number of awards granted will depend on available funding. Frequently Asked Questions Who can apply? To be eligible for the Research Development Program, applicants must be members of the CRISM Quebec Node and be affiliated with an institution or organization eligible to receive and manage funding from recognized granting agencies.\u00a0 How to become a Quebec node member? Becoming a member of the CRISM Quebec Node is simple. To join, complete our membership registration form.\u00a0 Once registered, you will be added to the Quebec Node membership list and gain access to a range of resources, networking opportunities, and member benefits. Membership also makes you eligible to participate in the Research Development Program and other initiatives offered by the Node. Are individuals outside of Quebec eligible? No. This Research Development Program is specifically intended for researchers and research teams based in Quebec. Each CRISM Node administers its own funding competition and support programs. Applicants located outside Quebec are encouraged to contact their respective CRISM Node for information on available opportunities. Can the funding be used for purposes other than a grant application? No. The purpose of this program is to support grant applications submitted to Quebec and national funding competitions by researchers and research teams based in Quebec. Past Editions 2025 Edition results Project 1 Participatory Evaluation of Innovative Harm Reduction Practices Adapted to the Needs of Marginalized and Socially Excluded Populations Principal applicant Karine Bertrand, Ph.D, Universit\u00e9 de Sherbrooke co-applicants L\u00e9onie Archambault Breitner Chaves Jorge Flores-Aranda David Martin Milot Michel Perreault Sandhia Vladlamudy Research Problem Although evidence has consistently demonstrated the effectiveness of harm reduction practices, their implementation remains limited. Current interventions are still largely grounded in a biomedical model and often fail to adequately address the systemic challenges prioritized by community organizations, including health equity concerns and the meaningful inclusion of lived and living experience in service design and delivery. Objectives Community organizations continue to face barriers to meaningful participation in intersectoral collaborations. This project seeks to strengthen their capacity to influence the development of institutional health programs and policies, ultimately promoting harm reduction practices that are more innovative, equitable, inclusive, and responsive to community needs. Project 2 Participatory co-construction of a perinatal harm reduction stigma-reduction intervention for service providers and students in the field of health and social care Principal applicant L\u00e9onie Archambault Ph.D,Universit\u00e9 de Sherbrooke and Institut Universitaire des D\u00e9pendances co-applicants Dennis Wendt Sophia Dobischok Marie-\u00c8ve Goyer Maya Nader Karine Hudon Anne-Marie Mecteau Isabelle Risler Research Problem Stigmatizing attitudes and practices among service providers toward pregnant individuals and parents who use substances can negatively affect care experiences and hinder the delivery of effective harm reduction services during the perinatal period. To date, no Canadian intervention has specifically targeted this form of stigma, while initiatives developed internationally lack consistency in both their design and intended scope. Objectives This project seeks to co-design and pilot a stigma-reduction intervention for perinatal care settings, grounded in narrative approaches and guided reflection, in collaboration with pregnant individuals and parents who use substances. A further objective is to develop a robust evaluation framework to assess the intervention&#8217;s effectiveness and guide future implementation efforts. Project 3 Evaluating the Initial Implementation of a Peer Support Training Program for 2SLGBTQIA+ Youth at Risk of Problematic Substance Use and Homelessness Principal applicant Maxime Blanchette,Universit\u00e9 du Qu\u00e9bec en Abitibi-T\u00e9miscamingue co-applicant \u00c9lise Cournoyer-Lemaire Research Problem 2SLGBTQIA+ youth who experience violence or unsupportive family environments are at increased risk of substance use, housing instability, and homelessness. Peer support interventions, especially those delivered by individuals with training in mental health, have been identified as a promising approach to promoting resilience and improving outcomes among these youth.
