TP1 - Enhancing Clinical Research Culture in Community Settings

Behavioral health research improves practice application and validates evidence-based care, however, there are inherent challenges in translating controlled study protocols into direct service delivery. This poster session offers a case study of a community based non-profit co-occurring treatment provider that has adopted a consistent posture of program access to host collaborative research studies evaluating a range of substance use disorder and mental health interventions. Attendees will be able to review partnerships, methods, and outcomes from five embedded research studies hosted by the agency as a foundation for understanding collaboration strategies and potential data value for their organizations and patient populations.
