Other Teams
Do you care about someone struggling with a substance use disorder/addiction? SHaW has training that can help!
When you complete the training session, our hope is that you will be able to confidently support individuals by:
• Understanding the complex nature of addiction as a disease and that substance use disorders often cannot be resolved by the individual simply choosing to stop.
• Confronting myths and stigma regarding addiction and recovery and how its negative impact deters individuals from seeking support
• Using empathetic language when a person chooses to honor you by disclosing that they are struggling with substance use.
• Being available to effectively listen and use tactful communication techniques to respond to those who express the need for support.
• Defining and understanding that recovery is a life-time journey with multiple pathways to achieving wellness in recovery.
• Knowing available recovery support resources that are on and off campus and how to access them.
