Have you wondered how best to integrate screening for problem gambling into your work? This session seeks to teach skill development and provide resources for behavioral health workers who are not certified gambling counselors but who want to be equipped to do this integration. The first half of the session will focus on holistic and integrated care for co-occurring mental health, substance use and gambling disorders by way of gambling screening, brief-intervention, and referral best-practices (using the SBIRT model as a foundation), and creating a “safe space” to talk about gambling with cultural sensitivity. The second half of the session will provide facilitator training for a problem gambling education integration curriculum-reader designed for use in mental health and substance use disorder treatment groups.  Learning Goals: Be able to choose from validated problem gambling screening tools to conduct an SBIRT-style screening, brief-intervention/feedback and referral process using a few simple best practices. Receive some guidance on creating a “safe space” to talk about gambling with compassion, nonjudgement, and cultural sensitivity. Receive a problem gambling education integration curriculum-reader (PDF) and training to facilitate this curriculum in care delivery and treatment. All participants will be granted access to a Problem Gambling Education Session Reader and other valuable resources related to integration of problem gambling. 3 hours of NAADAC-approved CE credits available. 

The Clinical Supervision Foundations course was developed by the Addiction Technology Transfer Center (ATTC) Network as an introduction to the essential elements of supervisory practice. In response to the need for an educational program which helps supervisors qualify for credentialing, the course presents participants with the knowledge and skills necessary to assure quality of care and promote the professional development of addictions counselors. Knowing it is difficult for supervisors to be away from the worksite for extended periods, the course was intentionally designed utilizing a combination of online, face-to-face, and worksite formats to make up this 30-hour course. The 14-hour, ten module online course is self-paced, and can be taken as a standalone. It is intended to introduce basic concepts and resources, while providing a conceptual overview of the work of a clinical supervisor. The face-to-face segment, which requires the online course as a prerequisite, delves further into some of the more practical aspects of supervision and builds in opportunities for skills practice, offering a worksite aspect giving supervisors an opportunity to self-assess their knowledge and skills, as well as create a plan for continuing their professional development.    

The Client Workbook for Substance Use and Brain Injury was developed by the SUBI Project Team Second Edition (2021) Carolyn Lemsky, PhD, CPsych, ABPP/ABCN, Tim Godden, MSW, RSW, Advanced Practice Clinician and Maria Crowley, MA, CRC-Consultation, Editing, and Design, the National Association of State Head Injury Administrators (NASHIA). It is available online for free and it can be used in conjunction with the TBI Toolkit developed in collaboration with Region 7 Mid-America ATTC.

The Center of Excellence on Racial and Ethnic Minority Young Men Who Have Sex with Men and Other Lesbian, Gay, Bisexual, and Transgender Populations (YMSM + LGBT CoE) presents the updated curriculum based on the 2001 SAMHSA publication, A Provider’s Introduction to Substance Abuse Treatment for Lesbian, Gay, Bisexual, and Transgender Individuals.

The purpose of this introductory training is to provide HIV clinicians (including, but not limited to physicians, dentists, nurses, and other allied medical staff, therapists and social workers, and counselors, specialists, and case managers) with a detailed overview of alcohol abuse and the behavioral and medical approaches for treating individuals with an alcohol use disorder. The introductory training (which was initially developed in 2012) has been updated, and includes a 126-slide PowerPoint presentation, Trainer Guide, and a companion 2-page fact sheet. The duration of the training is approximately 3 hours, if the trainer chooses to present all of the slides. The training duration can be shortened slightly by eliminating select slides. For example, slides 50-58 represent a general introduction of HIV/AIDS, and can be eliminated if your audience already has a broad knowledge base with regards to HIV/AIDS education.  “Test Your Knowledge” questions have been inserted at the beginning and end of the presentation to assess a change in the audience’s level knowledge after the key content has been presented. An answer key is provided in the Trainer’s notes for slides 7-11 and slides 121-125. Poll Everywhere, or a similar audience polling system can be utilized, if available, when facilitating the Test Your Knowledge question sessions. For more information, visit: https://www.polleverywhere.com/.  In addition, a series of case studies (slide 74 and slide 115) and additional questions (slides 96-99) have been inserted throughout the presentation to encourage dialogue among the training participants, and to illustrate how the information presented can be used clinically. 

Lesbian, Gay, Bisexual and Transgender people can experience violence, discrimination and oppression chronically over the full course of their lives. The health disparities and use of substances among members of these communities confirm the grave toll wrought for the transgression of being who they are. This interactive training raises awareness and offers strategies to engage and retain LGBT people in care and treatment. Participants will explore their own attitudes, values and beliefs and consider the practice of cultural humility.

The presentation seeks to raise awareness by defining key terms, describing the main classes of synthetic drugs commonly available, presenting available data on the extent of use, providing information on how to identify and assess individuals using them.
