There are often many risk factors associated with the development of a substance use disorder. It is essential to understand and appreciate the interaction between all contributing factors. In this free webinar, organised by NAADAC, Julie Owens, a Certified Domestic Violence Counsellor, will discuss the overlapping vulnerabilities.
Many persons with substance use disorders have multiple vulnerabilities. Professionals must know the correlations, implications, and ramifications of these intersections. Clients have often experienced traumas, including domestic violence or sexual assault. Survivors of these crimes also experience trauma reactions such as depression, anxiety, and PTSD. Some have pre-existing conditions, while others develop them as a result of the traumas.
This event will take place Tuesday, August 1, 2:00–3:30 p.m. EST.
