SUMMARY:Leading Through Disruption: Adaptive Leadership Strategies for Substance Misuse Prevention
DESCRIPTION:Leading Through Disruption: Adaptive Leadership Strategies for Substance Misuse Prevention\nIn an era of shifting public health priorities\, evolving policy landscapes\, and unpredictable funding\, prevention leaders need to know more than just best practices in prevention.

You’ll leave this session not just with a theory\, but with a practical leadership playbook designed to spark innovation and ensure your prevention initiatives thrive in the face of change. \nRegister Here

SUMMARY:Virtual Co-Occurring Disorder (COD) Series: Addiction Cycle Basics for Mental Health Providers
DESCRIPTION:Virtual Co-Occurring Disorder (COD) Series: Addiction Cycle Basics for Mental Health Providers\nJoin us for a new workshop learning series on the challenges facing individuals struggling with COD. This series will explore how substances of abuse and mental health concerns impact each other. Each session will offer community providers a deeper understanding of providing integrated care to support and foster overall all health and well-being. \nMental health practitioners should understand the addiction brain because it is a complex and subtle system that influences behavior and decision-making. Addiction is not just a matter of willpower but involves a deep\, almost primal urge that feels as though it arose from outside conscious control. This understanding is crucial for developing effective treatment plans that address the biological\, behavioral\, and psychological components of addiction. By recognizing the brain’s reward system and its role in addiction\, practitioners can provide more targeted and effective interventions that support recovery and prevent relapse. \nWho Should Attend: This event is sponsored by the adult mental health block grant and is intended for persons who serve adults only struggling with severe mental illness and/or COD receiving services that are community-based/outpatient setting (does not include substance use disorder (SUD) providers\, inpatient\, or residential treatment\, parents of children who are primary recipients) that is funded by a community mental health service provider (CMHSP) or is a contractor of a CMHSP in the state of Michigan. It contains content appropriate for CEOs\, COOs\, clinical directors\, supervisors\, case managers\, support coordinators\, therapists\, crisis workers\, and nurses. Hours can count toward Integrated Dual Disorder Treatment (IDDT) annual refresher. \nThe Michigan Department of Health and Human Services\, through the Community Mental Health Association of Michigan has provided funding for this initiative through the Federal Community Mental Health Block Grant.
