The Florida Node joined the Clinical Trials Network in September 2000. This Node includes the Center for Family Studies in the Miller School of Medicine at the University of Miami (the Regional Research and Training Center (RRTC)) and community treatment programs in Florida and Puerto Rico. These CTPs serve urban and semi-rural areas, and treat an ethnically and racially diverse population. The five founding CTPs are leaders in innovative service programs and the development of drug abuse treatment in the State of Florida. The Florida Node also includes the Island Grove Regional Treatment Center, a former Rocky Mountain Node CTP. The node has considerable expertise in: 1) adolescent family treatment, 2) treatment for HIV/AIDS populations, 3) aggressive engagement of drug abusers into treatment, and 4) microanalysis of family therapy clinical process. The node has a special interest and expertise with Spanish speaking populations both in the US and abroad.
