Alcohol is STILL a drug. The opioid crisis, increase in stimulant misuse, and marijuana legalization dominates the news— yet alcohol remains the number one substance causing health, social, legal, and financial problems throughout the US. This recorded series presented by Great Lakes MHTTC will focus on the hopefulness of recovery from alcohol use disorder, will also take a deep dive into what people know about the full impact of alcohol overuse and the ways it affects every person in the US.

This December 7, 2021 session focuses on Alcohol Use Disorder Treatment. In this workshop, Joe Rosenfeld discusses the constant nature of alcohol as an epidemic and the early (pre-1950’s) efforts at treatment and recovery. Then he presented on the emergence of the current Alcohol Use Disorder Treatment system and identified an array of evidence-supported practices currently in use.
