This virtual training is being sponsored by the HHSC Substance Use Disorders (SUD) Programs. SUD contractors have priority for this training.
This full day training will provide an overview to clarify the core principles of harm reduction. Harm reduction was born out of the need to reduce the stigma of addiction and those who misuse substances. Participants will be familiarized with a set of practical strategies to reduce negative consequences of drug use. Attendees will understand drug use as a complex, multi-faceted phenomenon that encompasses a continuum of behaviors. The training will be presented through a lens of recovery – where success is seen through quality of life & well-being, instead of cessation of all symptoms or drug use. At the end of the training, attendees will have a better understanding of Harm reduction and strategies to offer optimal services.
