Integrative Therapeutics, Inc. (ITI), a leading manufacturer and distributor of nutritional supplements to medical professionals, has announced its sponsorship of the STAIR Residency Scholarship Program in collaboration with the American Association of Naturopathic Physicians (AANP). “We are very excited to partner with ITI on the STAIR Program,” said, Jane Guiltinan, President of the AANP, “This unique scholarship will offer two, one year, fully paid post graduate naturopathic residencies at leading integrative medical clinics across the country. The residency provides an amazing opportunity for new graduates to experience a truly integrated residency with time spent at both a naturopathic practice and an MD managed integrative practice.”

ITI has been a strong advocate for the Naturopathic community since the company’s inception over 30 years ago in Portland, Oregon. “Naturopathic physicians have played a key role in our company’s development, said Richard Johnson, General Manager for ITI, “We are proud to partner with the AANP to help ensure future leadership in integrative medicine, foster the expansion of graduate medical education, and support licensing for Naturopathic Physicians. The STAIR Program reflects ITI’s continued commitment to the Naturopathic Community.” Remaining true to it origins, ITI has also donated $1 million dollars to the community over the last 5 years.

The STAIR Program residency scholarship offers post graduate Naturopathic Physicians a unique and vital preparatory step for future opportunities and to “Step Up” to the next level of professional experience and success. These residencies will be approved by the Council on Naturopathic Medical Education (CNME) and provide real world experience for graduates in practicing natural medicine and running an integrative clinic.
