Announcing an Upcoming Webinar: Meeting People Where They Are and Resources 

that Support Safety, Healing, and Empowerment

Description:

This webinar is the fourth in a series based on NCDVTMH’s new guide: Committed to Safety for ALL Survivors: Guidance for Domestic Violence Programs on Supporting Survivors Who Use Substances.

This session will provide:

• A framework for providing survivor-defined support that includes strategies for assessing where people are in relation to their substance use
• Guidance on what kinds of approaches and resources may be helpful based on where people are
• Information on the internal and external resources that promote healing and recovery for individuals experiencing chaotic substance use
• An opportunity for advocates and programs to reflect on what resources are already available within their services, as well as gather ideas from other programs about how additional recovery resources could be added or expanded.
