The overall goal of this research and training program, Culturally Centered Addictions Research Training (C-CART), is to educate clinicians, providers, and doctoral students in health professions in research skills that include culturally centered practices, related to substance use and substance use disorders (SU/SUDs) which can be applied in interprofessional practice and diverse settings.

C-CART specifically focuses on the rural and underserved populations in Arizona and the southwestern United States. Funded through the National Institute on Drug Abuse, the program fills a critical need for culturally relevant training in health professions, and complements NAU’s doctoral programs in health care and behavioral health fields.

Scholars of C-CART :

  • Advance skills through coursework
  • Develop research experience working in interprofessional teams with academic and community mentors
  • Explore culturally-centered, evidence-based practices through working with local community partners

Numerous community agencies across the state of Arizona are participating in the program, including: Crossroads; The Guidance Center; Health Choice Arizona; Native Americans for Community Action; Northern Arizona University Campus Health Services; Regional Center for Border Health, Inc.; and Southwest Behavioral and Health Services. See the C-CART Community Partners page for more information.
