SUMMARY:SAMHSA Recovery Month Webinar: Recovery Among Diverse Populations
DESCRIPTION:“E pluribus unum” (“Out of many\, one”) is more than the motto of the United States:  It is an essential part of the American experience.  The U.S. population is increasingly ethnically diverse—for example\, Hispanics/Latinos now make up 16 percent of the population.  Racial diversity is also evident\, with Whites (72 percent)\, African Americans (13 percent)\, Asian Americans (5 percent)\, American Indians and Alaska Natives (0.9 percent)\, Native Hawaiians and Other Pacific Islanders (0.2 percent)\, people of more than one race (3 percent)\, and those from other groups (6 percent) making up the population. Recovery from mental and/or substance use disorders—a process of change through which individuals improve their health and wellness\, live self-directed lives\, and strive to reach their full potential—share similarities for all on this journey\, regardless of community or background.  For example\, the major dimensions that support a life in recovery—health\, home\, purpose\, and community—as well as the guiding principles are similar for everyone. However\, the ways that recovery is sought\, supported\, and maintained are diverse and very much influenced by culture.  Panelists will discuss some of the different ways that people from diverse communities find their pathways to recovery and the various challenges they may face.  The show will also review resources for understanding different cultural perspectives about behavioral health conditions and those designed to enhance the cultural consciousness of providers and organizations.

SUMMARY:NAADAC Webinar: Electronic Screen and Addiction
DESCRIPTION:This presentation focuses on the correlation between impulsive and prolonged use of electronic screens and potential for developing substance addiction. Recent studies indicate a potential link between excessive use of electronic devices and substance addiction as a function of age (with younger children at greater risk). A critical role of the parent-child relationship during early and middle childhood is to strengthen the child’s impulsive control skills. Relationships between parents and children are often strained due to the lack of shared bonding. Participants will explore the link between prolonged screen use\, impulse control\, family relationships\, and risk of mental health/addiction development in children and teens. Treatment ideas will be practiced using application scenarios. \nLearning Objectives\n\nExplain the impact of impulsive screen use to the parent/child relationship.\nApply specific prevention/treatment strategies to increase familial bonds in parent-child dyads to reduce impulsive behaviors.\nDescribe the correlation between early/middle childhood screen use and the development of addiction/mental health issues in adolescence and adulthood.

SUMMARY:History and Politics of Opioid Maintenance Treatment
DESCRIPTION:Presenter: Julie Kmiec\, DO\nSponsor: American Osteopathic Academy of Addiction Medicine (AOAAM) \nAbout the Webinar: This lecture will discuss the history of the rise of opiate addiction in the United States and the Harrison Narcotics Act that was enacted in 1914 to try to control use of narcotics\, as well as case law from that era. The early treatment of opiate addiction with be reviewed leading to the development of methadone for maintenance treatment of heroin addiction. Subsequent changes in legislation allowing for maintenance treatment with methadone and later\, buprenorphine will also be explored. \nEducational Objectives:\nDiscuss the rise in the use of and addiction to opiates in the 19th and early 20th centuries\nCite legislation and case law that has shaped the treatment of opioid use disorder over the past century\nDescribe the Dole & Nyswander (1965) clinical trial of methadone for treatment of heroin addiction\nSummarize how the Drug Addiction Treatment Act of 2000 further allowed treatment of opioid use disorder\nDiscuss the Comprehensive Addiction Recovery Act of 2016 and its impact on treatment on opioid use disorders \nContinuing education information: The Council on Continuing Medical Education (CCME) has been delegated authority by the AOA Board of Trustees to monitor osteopathic CME and award Category 1 accreditation status to osteopathic CME sponsors. \nThe purpose of the AOAAM’s continuing medical education program is to continually improve the quality of patient care\, through the growth of knowledge\, the improvement of skills\, and physician-to-physician interaction. \nDesignation Statement: \nThe American Osteopathic Academy of Addiction Medicine (AOAAM) designates this educational activity for a maximum of 1 (one) Category 1A Credit by the AOA CCME (pending all requirements are met).

SUMMARY:CTN Webinar: Testing Chronic Care Models for  Tobacco Use Disorder
DESCRIPTION:The CTN Web Seminar Series presents: Anne Joseph\, MD\, MPH. \nTreatment of tobacco use disorder is challenging\, and many smokers require multiple quit attempts before they achieve long term abstinence. Nevertheless\, typical treatment is based on a discrete model of care lasting 8-12 weeks\, with little attention to how or if treatment should be modified in subsequent quit attempts. This presentation will describe two randomized clinical trials for smoking cessation. The Tobacco Longitudinal Care (TLC) study showed that a chronic care model significantly improved long-term quit rates compared to usual care. The Program for Lung Cancer Screening and Tobacco Treatment (PLUTO) is a sequential multiple assignment randomized trial (SMART) that includes three potential randomizations for current smokers who are undergoing lung cancer screening with low dose CT scanning. \nLEARNING OBJECTIVES \n\nDiscuss the relevance of longitudinal care treatment interventions for substance use treatment.\nReview the strengths and weaknesses of a sequential multiple assignment randomized trial (SMART) for substance use treatment interventions.\nConsider the challenges of implementing a chronic care treatment model for substance use treatment.\nEvaluate the relevance of the tobacco use disorder example to investigations of marijuana\, opiates\, or other drug treatment.\n\nClick here to register

SUMMARY:Strengthening Connections: Knitting Together Substance use Prevention in Schools\, Communities\, and Healthcare
DESCRIPTION:Caring for ME Webinar with Liz Blackwell-Moore\, MPH. \nSchools\, communities and healthcare practices across Maine are working hard to reduce the heavy burden being caused by substance use disorders. While many people are working hard to improve the community and healthcare response to overdoses and increase treatment and recovery services\, there are also substantial efforts underway to prevent substance use disorders from forming. Webinar participants will learn what schools and communities are doing to implement best practices strategies to prevent people from having substance use disorders and how those efforts connect with prevention in the healthcare setting. \nThe objectives for this webinar include: \n1. Learn new information about the latest research and best practices in substance use prevention.\n2. Learn about prevention efforts and messaging happening in schools and communities and how those\nefforts connect to the efforts of health care.\n3. Learn about the importance of providing secondary prevention options to people most at risk for\noverdose. \nAdditional topics covered in the webinar are opiate misuse prevention\, prevention of early use of substances\, and the impact of Adverse Childhood Experiences on a person’s risk of problematic substance use.

SUMMARY:NAADAC Webinar: Addiction as a Relational Disorder
DESCRIPTION:Innumerable explanations and treatment models have been proffered for addressing addictions and addictive behaviors in our current era. Advances in behavioral and affective neuroscience have significantly advanced these endeavors. At the same time\, neuroscience and its integration into counseling is growing at a rapid pace and providers need to know how to respond. One key area of integration involves treatment of both addictions and relationships. This session will address both addiction and relational disorder from a neuroscience integration perspective. Specifically\, it explores the links between relational deficits and vulnerability to addiction. It describes the neurobiological connections between the two\, along with recommendations for effective treatment. \nLearning Objectives\n\nDiscuss brain basics that have the most relevance for counseling practice with addictions and relational disorders.\nExplore the deleterious effects of non-nurturing early environments on the brain.\nExamine interventions for relational trauma and addiction\, using a Metaphoric Model of brain-based counseling.
