Hope and Help for Families Affected by Substance Use Disorders

Written by IRETA | April 3, 2018

Description

Substance misuse and substance use disorders often have an adverse impact on families and their individual members, including children. Yet little attention is paid to the impact of SUDs on the family perspective or on the particular needs inherent to the situation. This webinar covers facilitating treatment engagement, helping family members support a loved one’s recovery, and connecting the family unit and individuals with help and support. These skills increase awareness of how a family functions can improve the emotional health of its members.

Presenter

Dennis C. Daley, PhD, is Senior Clinical Director of Substance Use Services at the UPMC Health Plan, and a Professor of Psychiatry at the University of Pittsburgh School of Medicine. He has an extensive background in clinical care, research, teaching, and disseminating information to providers, individuals in treatment or recovery, and families.
