Our annual conference will provide cutting-edge information on issues related to HIV/AIDS, hepatitis, and substance abuse. All outreach workers, substance abuse counselors, and other related healthcare personnel who work with substance users, at risk or HIV/AIDS/Hepatitis populations are encouraged to attend.
The conference is based on the seven Outreach Competencies developed by the Center for HIV, Hepatitis, and Addiction Training and Technology (CHHATT). The Seven Competencies are:
- Competency 1 - Understanding Outreach and Outreach in a Scientific Context
- Competency 2 - Understanding Chemical Dependency
- Competency 3 - Understanding Disease and Wellness in the Context of Drug Use
- Competency 4 - Engagement
- Competency 5 - Intervention
- Competency 6 - Client Support
- Competency 7 - Supporting Ourselves
Attendees will find this an informative and interactive forum providing the most up-to-date information and techniques available in the field. CEUs will be provided through NAADAC and pending approval from NASW.
We have invited leading authorities who will speak on topics on addiction and co-infection with HIV and Hepatitis, rapid-testing, Buprenorphine, and improving efforts in working with hard-to reach and special populations, and much more.
