SUMMARY:NeC-ROTAC Webinar - Building Bridges Between Harm Reduction and Treatment for People with Substance Use Disorders
DESCRIPTION:In recent years\, there has been growing support for a harm reduction approach to drug policy\, which emphasizes reducing some of the negative consequences associated with drug use through a variety of public health measures. Historically\, this approach has been a core value of syringe service programs\, expanding into other settings particularly as rising overdose deaths have made educating people about overdose risks and distributing naloxone more urgent. \nThis workshop will explore how harm reduction is evolving\, different interpretations of harm reduction\, and ways to build bridges between harm reduction services and the continuum of care for people who use drugs\, with a focus on rural communities. Discussion topics will include how harm reduction providers are offering or connecting participants to various types of treatment\, broadly defined\, and how treatment providers are incorporating harm reduction strategies into their services. \nPresenter: Susan Stellin\, MPH \nFor registration\, click here.

SUMMARY:Addiction Policy Forum Webinar - Digging into the BioPsychoSocial: Addressing the Holistic\, Multifaceted Needs of Individuals in Treatment and Recovery
DESCRIPTION:Join this free webinar  to learn about the biological\, psychological\, and social needs of individuals in treatment and recovery from a substance use disorder with Dr. James H. Berry\, Professor and Chair of the Department of Behavioral Medicine and Psychiatry and the Director of Addictions at the West Virginia University School of Medicine. \n\n\nThe biopsychosocial model addresses the biological\, psychological\, and social factors that contribute to many chronic illnesses\, including addiction. Biopsychosocial recognizes that there are multiple pathways to addiction\, such as genetic predisposition\, psychiatric and psychological factors like trauma or unhealthy coping skills\, and social factors like having substance-using peers. Join us to hear from Dr. Berry about these three critical domains in recovery and the need to build individualized\, tailored treatment plans. \n\n\nSpeaker: James H. Berry\, DO is Professor and Chair of the Department of Behavioral Medicine and Psychiatry at West Virginia University School of Medicine and the Director of Addictions. He is board-certified in both General Psychiatry and Addiction Psychiatry. He received his medical degree from Michigan State University College of Osteopathic Medicine\, completed a General Psychiatry residency at West Virginia University\, and an Addiction Psychiatry fellowship at the University of Hawaii. He and his colleagues at WVU have developed innovative community-based treatment models in response to the addiction crisis in Appalachia and are actively engaged in novel National Institute of Drug Abuse-supported neuromodulation research related to substance use disorders through WVU’s Rockefeller Neuroscience Institute. \nFor registration\, click here.
