Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: National Drug Control Program agencies are required to follow a detailed process in developing their annual budget submissions for inclusion in the Drug Control Budget. ONDCP outlines its process in circulars that it sends to agencies which provide detailed reporting instructions on how to properly prepare their drug budget submissions. By statute, the Director of ONDCP is required to provide, by July 1 of each year, budget recommendations to the heads of departments and agencies with responsibilities under the National Drug Control Program. According to ONDCP, these budget recommendations are intended to specifically delineate what priorities each agency is expected to fund in the coming budget submission. By statute, the head of each department, agency, or program of the federal government with responsibilities under the Strategy is required to transmit to the Director of ONDCP a copy of their proposed drug control budget request at the same time as the budget request is submitted to their superiors (and before submission to OMB). ONDCP refers to this request as the summer budget submission. The ONDCP Director is required to review each summer budget submission and transmit a written summary of its review to each agency stating whether the budget submission is adequate to implement the agency's responsibilities towards the objectives of the Strategy. With regard to the benefits and challenges of the budget process, officials from at least four of the six agencies we contacted reported that ONDCP's process for developing the Drug Control Budget is somewhat or very effective in (1) identifying Drug Control Budget priorities, (2) ensuring sufficiency of resources to implement the Strategy, or (3) providing a record of national drug control expenditures. The most pervasive challenges agencies we contacted identified were related to the timing of ONDCP's annual funding guidance and written reviews of agencies' budget submissions. Some agencies noted that these documents were too late to impact their initial budget formulation efforts, but ONDCP plans to issue funding guidance and written reviews earlier in future fiscal years that should address these concerns. In commenting on a draft of this report, ONDCP noted that the report provides a thoughtful review of ONDCP's process for developing programs and policies in support of the National Drug Control Strategy and highlights the various interactions it has with other federal drug control agencies. ONDCP stated that the feedback provided by the report will help ONDCP build stronger and more communicative relationships with these agencies and enable ONDCP to improve its budgetary process.

Download or read book Strengthening Forensic Science in the United States written by National Research Council and published by National Academies Press. This book was released on 2009-07-29 with total page 348 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Scores of talented and dedicated people serve the forensic science community, performing vitally important work. However, they are often constrained by lack of adequate resources, sound policies, and national support. It is clear that change and advancements, both systematic and scientific, are needed in a number of forensic science disciplines to ensure the reliability of work, establish enforceable standards, and promote best practices with consistent application. Strengthening Forensic Science in the United States: A Path Forward provides a detailed plan for addressing these needs and suggests the creation of a new government entity, the National Institute of Forensic Science, to establish and enforce standards within the forensic science community. The benefits of improving and regulating the forensic science disciplines are clear: assisting law enforcement officials, enhancing homeland security, and reducing the risk of wrongful conviction and exoneration. Strengthening Forensic Science in the United States gives a full account of what is needed to advance the forensic science disciplines, including upgrading of systems and organizational structures, better training, widespread adoption of uniform and enforceable best practices, and mandatory certification and accreditation programs. While this book provides an essential call-to-action for congress and policy makers, it also serves as a vital tool for law enforcement agencies, criminal prosecutors and attorneys, and forensic science educators.

Download or read book Pain Management and the Opioid Epidemic written by National Academies of Sciences, Engineering, and Medicine and published by National Academies Press. This book was released on 2017-09-28 with total page 483 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Drug overdose, driven largely by overdose related to the use of opioids, is now the leading cause of unintentional injury death in the United States. The ongoing opioid crisis lies at the intersection of two public health challenges: reducing the burden of suffering from pain and containing the rising toll of the harms that can arise from the use of opioid medications. Chronic pain and opioid use disorder both represent complex human conditions affecting millions of Americans and causing untold disability and loss of function. In the context of the growing opioid problem, the U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA) launched an Opioids Action Plan in early 2016. As part of this plan, the FDA asked the National Academies of Sciences, Engineering, and Medicine to convene a committee to update the state of the science on pain research, care, and education and to identify actions the FDA and others can take to respond to the opioid epidemic, with a particular focus on informing FDA's development of a formal method for incorporating individual and societal considerations into its risk-benefit framework for opioid approval and monitoring.

We print the paperback book so you don't have to. First you gotta find a good clean (legible) copy and make sure it's the latest version (not always easy). Some documents found on the web are missing some pages or the image quality is so poor, they are difficult to read. If you find a good copy, you could print it using a network printer you share with 100 other people (typically its either out of paper or toner). If it's just a 10-page document, no problem, but if it's 250-pages, you will need to punch 3 holes in all those pages and put it in a 3-ring binder. Takes at least an hour. It's much more cost-effective to just order the bound paperback from Amazon.com This book includes original commentary which is copyright material. Note that government documents are in the public domain. We print these paperbacks as a service so you don't have to.
