VA IAFAT

The Interprofessional Advanced Fellowship in Addiction Treatment is a two-year, multi-site fellowship that provides interdisciplinary scholarly (research, QI, program evaluation, etc.), clinical, and educational training to prepare physician, post-doctoral, and post-masters level fellows as leaders in the field of addiction treatment. Our fellows represent a variety of disciplines including medicine, psychology, nursing, chaplaincy, pharmacy and social work. They share a commitment to reducing the burden of alcohol and drug use disorders in Veteran populations. Ten local sites offer unique training opportunities and are linked through a common interdisciplinary addictions curriculum and opportunities for cross-site collaboration.
