NIDA's roots can be traced back to 1935, when a research facility (named the [[Addiction Research Center]] in 1948) was established in [[Lexington, Kentucky]] as part of a [[USPHS]] hospital. The [[Drug Abuse Warning Network]] (DAWN) and National Household Survey on Drug Abuse (NHSDA) were created in 1972. In 1974 NIDA was established as part of the [[Alcohol, Drug Abuse, and Mental Health Administration]] and given authority over the DAWN and NHSDA programs. The [[Monitoring the Future Survey]], which surveys high school seniors, was initiated in 1975; in 1991, it was expanded to include 8th and 10th graders.<ref>{{cite web |title=Important Events in NIDA History – The Organization – NIH 1998 Almanac |url=http://www.nih.gov/about/almanac/archive/1999/organization/nida/history.html |url-status=dead |archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20140105052327/http://www.nih.gov/about/almanac/archive/1999/organization/nida/history.html |archive-date=2014-01-05 |access-date= |publisher=Nih.gov}}</ref> | NIDA's roots can be traced back to 1935, when a research facility (named the [[Addiction Research Center]] in 1948) was established in [[Lexington, Kentucky]] as part of a [[USPHS]] hospital.
