Beginning with an overview of mental disorders, this workshop will focus specifically on clients with co-occurring mental illness and substance abuse. This workshop will emphasize the application of harm reduction principles in identification and intervention along a continuum of risk. The training will also guide service providers in determining effective harm reduction responses that are attentive to the realities of clients' lives, provider skill level, and agency mandate.
Presenters include: Andrew Hamid, Ph.D., ACSW, CASAC; Adjunct Professor, Columbia University School of Social Work
