The Academic, Researcher, and Clinician Network (ARC Network) is one of the key CIPSRT Knowledge Exchange Hub activities.
ARC Network is a network of Academics, Researchers, and Clinicians who have expertise in public safety personnel (PSP) and Posttraumatic Stress Injury (PTSI), or who have knowledge of organizations and families through which interactions and expressions of PTSI are encountered.
