The Recovery Research Institute have developed a new website that aims to answer the most common questions asked about addiction.

Addiction 101 addresses questions such as:

• What is the prevalence and cause of addiction?
• What does addiction feel like and what is the potential impact?

The easy to use website also includes a list of commonly used definitions relating to addiction and lists links to several guides, resources, articles and books addressing addiction and evidence-based practice.

The National Institute on Drug Abuse (NIDA) has released a number of new resources.

These are aimed at those working within the criminal justice system and other environments where people in recovery from drug addiction are ready to return to their daily lives.
