Virtual Training Via Zoom

Pathways to Recovery is inviting you to a presentation and community conversation, hosted by Maine Resilience Building Network to understand the connection between adverse childhood experiences and substance use and addiction. 

This training will provide an introductory overview of the science of stress, how ACEs greatly increase the risk for substance misuse, explore National and Maine State data that highlight risk factors, and finally discuss how to build resilience and demonstrate the importance of trauma-informed care and strategies to foster healing in addressing the overdose crisis. This approach reduces barriers to improve health equity and allows people to meet people who use where they are in their process of recovery.
