For many clinicians, the Medical Education and Research Foundation (MERF) has played an important role in building the knowledge, confidence, and connections needed to care for patients with substance use disorders.

Now, we are asking the MERF community to help pay it forward.

MERF’s current funds are critically low, and without additional support, we may be unable to sponsor MERF Scholars during the CSAM Annual Conference. Your contribution can help ensure that future scholars continue to receive the training, mentorship, and inspiration that have made the MERF experience so meaningful.

Your Support Makes an Immediate Difference

• $100 – Helps support the annual MERF Dinner
• $900 – Supports a MERF Scholar’s CSAM Motivational Interviewing Workshop and Conference registration, including the MERF Dinner
• $1,650 – Supports a MERF Scholar’s Conference registration and approximately three nights of hotel lodging

Every contribution, at any amount, is deeply appreciated and tax-deductible.
