Program for Alleviating and Reducing Traum, Stress and Substance Use Study

This pilot study investigates the feasibility of a group-based treatment program for reducing stress, symptoms of post-traumatic stress disorder (PTSD) and substance use disorder (SUD) for patients at CHA. The PARTS-SUD group is a clinical, referral-based program offered to eligible CHA patients.

As part of this study, participants will be invited to enroll in a stress reduction group for people with PTSD in an online format. Starting the week of September 25, the group will meet weekly for 90 minutes, on Tuesdays or Wednesdays from 5:30pm to 7:00pm ET. 

As more information becomes available, we will confirm the exact dates/times.

We greatly appreciate your interest and collaboration in our project. Should you have questions or want more information, contact us at PARTS@challiance.org.

The PARTS-SUD Study is funded with generous support from the Foundation for SELF Leadership. For more information reach out to PARTS@challiance.org.
