Substance Use Treatment and Relapse Prevention for Marginalized Populations
Hours: 1.00
Individuals from marginalized populations have more unmet needs for substance use treatment and relapse prevention services. Additionally, they have barriers to accessing substance use services or receiving culturally responsive care. Issues such as stigma, discrimination, limited availability, and unmet social needs create challenges to care. Providers need to take steps to reduce these treatment inequities to help promote better treatment and health outcomes.
The goal of this course is to provide addictions, behavioral health counseling, marriage and family therapy, psychology, and social work professionals in behavioral health treatment settings with information on how to provide treatment services to individuals from marginalized populations.
