Project Information

The RELIEF (Resources and Education Leading to Improved Pain Care Equity For Washingtonians) project funded by a grant from the Washington State Health Care Authority, includes three main objectives: 

1. Health Science Education: develop and disseminate web-based opioid and pain prevention training for all WA state health science students.  
2. Creation of the Pain Hub: develop a web-based central repository of resources for pain self-management for patients, providers and community members.  
3. Innovation: offer evidence-based programs to help primary care providers better manage people with pain, allowing them to continue to provide care to their patients on chronic opioid therapy.
