CTN Virtual Workshop organized by the Minority Interest Group.

Prior research found that African Americans (AAs): a) enter treatment later in the course of their addiction trajectory, b) are more likely to drop out of treatment, and c) have poorer treatment outcomes than non-Hispanic Whites.

This workshop will provide a) an overview of SUD treatments and outcomes for AAs, b) existing treatment research that might represent opportunities for addressing treatment disparities, c) ongoing efforts in delivering SUD treatment, including digital technologies, in Black communities, and d) effective targets for adaptations and/or implementation research that could improve SUD treatment outcomes for AAs. The objective of this workshop is to identify potential studies that could be conducted in the CTN.
