Course Description:

Addiction 101 is a crash course in substance use prevention, addiction, and recovery. The workshop is divided into three parts: Part one is intended to reduce stigma surrounding substance use by sharing a personal story of addiction and recovery. Part two focuses on the most significant risk factors for substance use and substance use disorders and describes how these lead to characteristic, protracted changes in the brain. Finally, part three offers mounting evidence for the need to treat addiction as a chronic disorder.
