(6/1/2022) A LOOK AT SPECIAL POPULATIONS: HOMELESS, MILITARY & VETERANS, AND CRIMINAL JUSTICE Understanding the generalities of co-occurring disorders is not enough. Community workers in various settings must also be aware of how sub-cultures are impacted in different ways. This advanced training will cover additional complications that those involved with homelessness, criminal justice, and the military may experience.
(6/15/2022) ONE MORE SPECIAL POPULATION: THE YOUNG BRAIN Childhood, adolescence, and young adulthood are times for significant growth—physically and emotionally. Because the young brain is not fully developed until around age 25, it responds differently than an adult brain. This training will focus on these developments and how the young brain is impacted by mental health and substance use issues.
