“Advancing Equity in Hispanic/Latino/a Behavioral Health Research, Evidence-based Programs, and Practices: Designing Future Directions and Policy Recommendations.”
This one-day event focuses on mental health and substance use research recommendations for the Hispanic/Latino (H/L) community. NLBHA will present its eCompendium of Evidence-Based Practices (EBP) and Guide, curated by the Evidence-Based Practice Subcommittee (EBPSC).
Esteemed speakers include Dr. Nora Volkow, Dr. Lisa Cacari-Stone, and Dr. Cristina Rabadán-Diehl, will address community-based research challenges and the need for new innovative research efforts for the Hispanic/Latino/a community.
Through a participatory-based approach, the attendees of the symposium will contribute to developing directions and recommendations for future Hispanic/Latino/a/ practice, research, and policy.
The Symposium will contribute to the development of a Latino Research Policy Paper that will document findings and recommendations to inform the advancement and development of Latino evidence-based practices and programs.
