The NIDA International Program has supported scholarships for students attending two European professional development programs in addiction. Corey Fitzgerald, M.S.W., M.P.H., clinical director of a U.S. Army substance abuse program outpatient clinic, was awarded the 2013 NIDA International Program scholarship to the Dutch Summer Institute on Alcohol, Drugs, and Addiction. The school, which will be held July 7–19, 2013, at the University of Amsterdam, focuses on international networking and multidisciplinary approaches to drug policy, prevention, and evidence-based treatment. The NIDA International Program also supported the scholarship fund for the European Monitoring Centre for Drugs and Drug Addiction (EMCDDA) European Summer School. The school for students and professionals focuses on drug policy challenges. It will be held July 1–12, 2013, at the Lisbon University Institute, Portugal.
