Treatment

In this presentation, Dr Carla Danielson will:

1) Provide a brief overview of the overlap between trauma (particularly child maltreatment) and substance use, theoretical models linking these, and the critical importance of integrated approaches to treatment for these problems;

2) Note the challenges that have impeded progress in integrated approaches;

This launch event is in response to the call for integrated implementation of services in institutions of higher learning and colleges, especially, at the primary level of intervention by respective stakeholders to facilitate integrated early intervention and prevention programmes with a specific focus on social crime prevention, risky substance use, and gender-based violence.
