Family practice was one of several primary care specialties awarded federal contracts in 1985 to survey substance abuse training needs. Family medicine has since excelled in creating a viable substance abuse network. Key events were the sponsorship of a fellowship program, the formation of the Society of Teachers of Family Medicine (STFM) Substance Abuse Working Group, and the working group's pursuit of externally funded projects. Tangible measures of the network's success include collective funding exceeding $7.3 million, an increase in the number of substance abuse activities at annual STFM conferences, and a nearly four-fold growth in the group's membership and collaborative publications. Key factors underlying the vitality of the network that may be generalizable include: 1) initial emphasis on training family physician faculty; 2) making optimal use of the existing administrative channels within STFM; 3) acquisition of external funding; 4) some continuity of core persons working together; 5) active networking within and outside family medicine; and 6) promotion of individual success.
家庭医疗是1985年获得联邦合同以调查药物滥用培训需求的几个初级保健专业之一。自那时以来，家庭医学在创建一个可行的药物滥用网络方面表现出色。关键事件包括赞助一个奖学金项目、成立家庭医学教师协会（STFM）药物滥用工作组以及该工作组对外部资助项目的追求。该网络成功的具体衡量标准包括集体资金超过730万美元、STFM年度会议上药物滥用活动数量的增加以及该组织成员和合作出版物数量近四倍的增长。该网络活力的潜在关键因素可能具有普遍性，包括：1）最初强调培训家庭医生教员；2）充分利用STFM内部现有的行政渠道；3）获得外部资金；4）一些核心人员共同工作的连续性；5）在家庭医学内部和外部积极建立联系；6）促进个人成功。
