REACH Training Program

REACH 2023-2024 application deadline has been extended only to PAs, NPs, and APRNs. Applications and letters must be submitted by January 15, 2023, 11:59 pm Eastern.

We want to be sure we have provided this opportunity to ALL rising Physician Assistants/Associates, Nurse Practitioners, and Advance Practice Registered Nurses from racial and ethnic minoritized backgrounds.

Recognizing and Eliminating disparities in Addiction through Culturally-informed Healthcare (REACH) is a unique one-year training program for racial and ethnic minoritized trainees interested in becoming addiction specialist. The REACH program involves a Welcome Workshop training experience, monthly webinars, and career mentorship throughout the academic year.

We would greatly appreciate your assistance in spreading the word to potential trainees, and other colleagues who advise rising medical professionals!
