Abstract

The article focuses on the Culturally-Centered Addictions Research Training Program (C-CART) at Northern Arizona University, designed to train doctoral students and practicing clinicians in culturally-centered, community-engaged research addressing substance use disorder (SUD) prevention and treatment among Indigenous and historically excluded populations in Arizona. C-CART offers interdisciplinary coursework and team-based research projects developed in partnership with community organizations, emphasizing cultural competency, health equity, and collaborative methodologies. Evaluation of the program shows growth in scholars' research skills, cultural awareness, and interprofessional collaboration, while community partners report enhanced research capacity and organizational benefits. The program aims to bridge rural healthcare providers and academic researchers to improve culturally-responsive SUD interventions and offers recommendations for similar training initiatives.
