SUMMARY:Technology-Based Interventions: Navigating New Models to Enhance and Expand Service Delivery
DESCRIPTION:This webinar will review the use of technology-based interventions related to treating individuals with substance use disorders and providing recovery support services focused on asynchronous tools\, such as social media\, blogs\, podcasts\, online support groups\, videos\, and text messaging. Finally\, recommendations for clinicians and peer recovery coaches for developing their own tools will be highlighted. \nAccording to the 2018 National Survey on Drug Use and Health\, almost 90% of individuals with a substance use disorder (SUD) did not receive treatment services\, with this number remaining relatively unchanged for several years. Stigma and bias regarding entering care and access to services (geographic or time constraints) have contributed to these low numbers. Furthermore\, the recent public health concerns given COVID-19 and the importance of social distancing have made access to services even more difficult\, resulting in SUD treatment and recovery support providers seeking viable alternatives to in-person service delivery. Advances in technology and increased availability to the internet have initially addressed this access issue for treatment and recovery support providers through the use of videoconferencing platforms to deliver services synchronously. However\, in many cases patients and peers are still unable to access treatment and support services on a regular basis and are augmenting their need for additional services by using apps\, social media\, automated behavioral intervention technologies (educational websites\,) online support groups\, etc. Behavioral health professionals benefit from understanding these tools\, how/why patients are using them\, and the best practices for adding them to their toolbox. While not replacing the need for treatment and recovery services\, technology-based interventions can serve as a ‘practice or support extender’. \nRegistration Deadline: July 7\, 2020\nRegister\nFor questions about this webinar\, please contact NFARtec staff at  workwise@casat.org or call 775-784-6265 to be directed to the correct individual.

SUMMARY:Counseling Emerging Adults With Substance Use Disorders
DESCRIPTION:Description\nSubstance use developmentally peaks during emerging adulthood (ages 18-25). Many emerging adults who develop problematic substance use during this developmental period have been exposed to environmental\, individual\, and interpersonal stressors throughout their life that place them at risk for ongoing difficulties with substance use as they transition to adulthood. This transition into substance use interfaces with the five features of emerging adulthood. The helping professional\, however\, is left with the dilemma on how to proceed in addressing substance use disorders in emerging adults. This webinar will enable the participants to work more effectively when counseling emerging adults with substance use disorders. \nLearning Objectives\n\nLeave with a working definition and understanding of emerging adulthood in conjunction with the five features of emerging adulthood.\nUnderstand five reasons substance use increases in emerging adulthood.\nLearn seven skills in counseling emerging adults with substance use disorders.\n\nPrice\nEducation is FREE to all professionals \nEarn 1.5 Continuing Education Hours (CEs)\nThe CE certificate for this webinar will be available after the webinar takes place. NAADAC Members will be prompted to register for the CE quiz for free\, while non-members will be prompted to pay a $20 processing fee to access the quiz.

SUMMARY:Identifying and Modeling Higher Order Lags in Intensive Longitudinal Data
DESCRIPTION:Presenter: Dr. Nicholas C. Jacobson is an Assistant Professor of Biomedical Data Science and Psychiatry at the Geisel School of Medicine at Dartmouth. He received his Ph.D. in Clinical Psychology from the Pennsylvania State University and completed his clinical fellowship and post-doctoral fellowship at Massachusetts General Hospital/Harvard Medical School. Dr. Jacobson researches the use of technology to enhance both the assessment and treatment of anxiety and depression. His work has focused on (1) enhancing precision assessment of anxiety and depression using intensive longitudinal data\, (2) conducting multimethod assessment utilizing passive sensor data from smartphones and wearable devices\, and (3) providing scalable\, personalized technology-based treatments utilizing smartphones. \nAbstract: With the recent growth in intensive longitudinal designs and the corresponding demand for methods to analyze such data\, there has never been a more pressing need for user-friendly analytic tools that can identify and estimate optimal time lags in intensive longitudinal data. The available standard exploratory methods to identify optimal time lags within univariate and multivariate multiple-subject time series are greatly underpowered at the group (i.e.\, population) level. I will describe a hybrid exploratory–confirmatory tool\, referred to as the Differential Time-Varying Effect Model (DTVEM)\, which features a convenient user accessible function to identify optimal time lags and estimate these lags within a state-space framework. Data from an empirical ecological momentary assessment study are then used to demonstrate the utility of the proposed tool in identifying the optimal time lag for studying the linkages between nervousness and heart rate in a group of undergraduate students. Using a simulation study\, I will illustrate the effectiveness of DTVEM in identifying optimal lag structures in multiple-subject time-series data with missingness\, as well as its strengths and limitations as a hybrid exploratory–confirmatory approach\, relative to other existing approaches. \nRegistration link: https://libcal.dartmouth.edu/calendar/itc/2020DSAIW2

SUMMARY:Statistical Concerns for the Analysis of Data Collected by Wearable Digital Health Technology in Clinical Trials
DESCRIPTION:With recent developments in wearable biosensors and portable electronics (collectively referred to as digital health technology – DHT)\, many clinical trials propose measuring endpoints using a DHT.  DHTs record data at a higher frequency than traditional clinician/patient observed data.  For example\, a wearable accelerometer records data multiple times a second every day during follow-up (lasting multiple weeks).  Clinical endpoints are derived from this high frequency data.  Examples include: \n\nTrials where an experimental drug is hypothesized to improve exercise capacity with the endpoint of daily time spent at or above a specified exercise intensity\nTrials where daily sleep parameters are measured by a one or more sensors\n\nTo estimate and test treatment effects measured in these cases\, several statistics issues must be addressed.  Unlike current endpoint measurements\, DHTs provide endpoint measurements for every day worn.  In the case that different days (e.g.\, weekends vs. weekdays) are combined to form endpoints\, treatment effect estimates may be biased or miss important disease features if days are not exchangeable.  With the greater amount of data collected\, missing data can occur in multiple ways (e.g.\, a missing observation within a day\, missing a day within a week\, monotone dropout). \nThis talk discusses potential issues arising in exercise endpoints if a DHT is worn for different times each day during a study.  It also discusses a case study exploring how different statistical analyses of a clinical trial for a new insomnia drug are affected by missing data to motivate discussion of statistical considerations in studies using these new data collection tools. \nBio: \nDr. Andrew Potter is a mathematical statistician in the Division of Biometrics I in CDER supporting the review work in the Division of Psychiatry.  His research interests include the use of digital health technologies in clinical trials and the analysis of high frequency outcome data and in involved in working groups at FDA on this topic.  He received his PhD in Biostatistics from the University of Pittsburgh. \nRegister Here

SUMMARY:New Ethical Dilemmas: Developing Professional Competency in the Digital Age - Introductory Webinar
DESCRIPTION:With the rapid onset of the public health emergency\, COVID-19\, the use of technology and social media by behavioral health practitioners\, for personal and professional purposes\, has increased dramatically. As such\, ethical and practice issues\, like self-disclosure in postings\, unintentional boundary crossings and violations\, privacy and security issues\, and social media concerns\, reflect just some of the new dilemmas that providers face today.

SUMMARY:Building Capacity for a Public Health Approach to Prevention
DESCRIPTION:COURSE DESCRIPTION\nSubstance misuse and behavioral health overall\, are an intrinsic part of public health. Many people with substance use disorders also live with mental health disorders\, including serious mental illness\, as well as preventable and treatable medical health issues. Often\, the same root causes and care disparities are responsible for most or all of these issues. Therefore\, substance use preventionists are often trying to reach and serve the same populations and individuals as mental and physical health care professionals. Bringing together these different fields into a comprehensive public health approach can significantly improve overall health and wellness. This webinar provides information on preparing for a public health approach from a substance use prevention perspective. This includes how preventionists can use the Strategic Prevention Framework to support the implementation of public health approach. \nLEARNING OBJECTIVES\n\nDefine a framework for a public health model\nExplain what is a public health approach to prevention\nDescribe the stakeholders and partners necessary for a public health approach\nExplore the steps to implementing a public health approach\n\n\nPRESENTERS\nJosh Esrick\, MPP is a Senior Policy Analyst with Carnevale Associates. Josh has extensive experience in substance use prevention; researching\, writing\, and presenting on best practice and knowledge development publications\, briefs\, and reference guides; and developing and providing training and technical assistance to numerous organizations at the Federal\, state\, and local levels. He developed numerous SAMHSA Center for the Application of Prevention Technologies’ (CAPT) products on strategies to prevent opioid misuse and overdose\, risk and protective factors for substance use\, youth substance use prevention strategies\, youth substance use trends\, emerging substance use trends\, the potential regulations surrounding marijuana legalization\, as well as numerous other topics. \nRegister

SUMMARY:Governor Mills 2nd Annual Opioid Response Summit Compassion\, Community\, Connection
DESCRIPTION:Governor Janet Mills will host her second Opioid Response Summit on Thursday\, July 23.

SUMMARY:Guiding Implementation Fidelity to Improve Adoption of Youth Substance Abuse Prevention Programs
DESCRIPTION:The Stages of Implementation Completion (SIC) is an 8-staged measure of implementation process and milestones. Data collected using the SIC has generated a large repository of both successful and non-successful real-world implementation efforts\, allowing for robust analyses and generation of models for paths for implementation success. These models currently are being used to inform a randomized clinical trial evaluating the benefit of adding audit-and-feedback to inform purveyor-site interactions in the real-world adoption of evidence-based youth substance abuse prevention programs. \nPresenter information: \nLisa Saldana\, PhD\nSenior Scientist\nOregon Social Learning Center \nDr. Saldana is an implementation scientist and intervention developer. Her research emphasizes the development of implementation tools and strategies to measure and facilitate implementation of evidence-based practice in real-world settings. Her intervention research has focused on the development of evidence-based programs for the treatment of parental substance abuse in the child welfare system. \nZoom connection information:\nPhone: US: +1 646 558 8656 or +1 669 900 6833\nClick to join Zoom Meeting\nMeeting ID: 552 573 565
