This study doesn't follow the usual testing phases — it may be an observational study or a different type of research.
CEREMONY is a research program designed to help Native American and Alaska Native mothers who are pregnant or have recently given birth and are struggling with substance use. The study adapts an existing evidence-based treatment program called SUPeRAD—which combines pregnancy care with addiction treatment in one place—to better fit the specific cultural needs and values of Native communities. By enrolling, you would receive integrated care while allowing researchers to collect information about your health outcomes to help improve services for future Native mothers.
Native mothers face much higher rates of death related to pregnancy and substance use compared to other groups, and there is a critical gap in addiction treatment programs that are designed with Native communities' needs and cultures in mind. This study exists to fill that gap by creating and testing a treatment approach that is both clinically proven and culturally respectful.

You would receive integrated care for both your pregnancy and substance use treatment at Sacred Circle Clinic, a tribal health center. The research team would collect information from your medical records about your pregnancy, delivery, and health outcomes over time. You would allow researchers to contact other health providers and hospitals involved in your care to gather additional information about your progress and your baby's health. The study follows you through pregnancy and into the postpartum period when support is most critical.
