SUMMARY:Recovery is Community: Tobacco Use in Behavioral Health
DESCRIPTION:Presented by Tony Klein\, MPA\, NCACII\, & Katie Gassner\, CTTS \nDespite significant progress made in reducing smoking in the general population\, individuals with mental and substance use disorders bear a disproportionate burden of tobacco-related illness\, disability\, and premature death. This training explores the basis for widespread smoking in the recovering community and the bio-psycho-social aspects of tobacco use disorder. The basis of all recovery is hope and a belief that our current circumstances can be improved\, managed\, and overcome. Learning tobacco-free coping skills is safe\, achievable\, enhances physical and mental health\, reduces social stigma\, and contributes to long-term recovery. \nLearning Objectives – participants will be able to: \n\nDefine the origin of prevailing tobacco-related social norms in the recovery and treatment culture.\nIdentify strategy to mobilize the recovery and treatment community to de-normalize tobacco use and support interventions tailored to individuals in behavioral health services.\n\nONLINE Tuesday\, Feb 7 • 12 pm to 1 pm\nFREE. Register online. \n  \nFree CE credit of 1.0 hour for AMA\, ANCC\, and LSW/LCW/LPC/LMFT will be offered to those who attend. \nRequirements include attendance for the duration of the session and completion of a course evaluation provided at the end of the session. \nACCREDITATION \nIn support of improving patient care the University of Pittsburgh is jointly accredited by the Accreditation Council for Continuing Medical Education (ACCME)\, the Accreditation Council for Pharmacy Education (ACPE)\, and the American Nurses Credentialing Center (ANCC) to provide continuing education for the health care team. \nPHYSICIAN (CME) \nThe University of Pittsburgh designates this live activity for a maximum of 1.0 AMA PRA Category 1 Credits™. Physicians should claim only the credit commensurate with the extent of their participation in the activity. \nSOCIAL WORK (CEU) \nMercyhurst University’s Department of Social Work is accredited by the Council on Social Work Education and is an approved provider of Social Work\, Marriage & Family Therapist and Professional Counselor continuing education by the Pennsylvania State Licensing Board.

SUMMARY:How States and Communities Can Better Support Military and Veteran Caregivers
DESCRIPTION:Three-part Series: December 13\, 2022; January 12\, 2023; February 9\, 2023Time: 2:00–3:30 p.m. ET \nRegister Online \nPart 3: February 9\, 2023 \n\nSession 3 – Strengthening Community Supports and Promoting Financial Wellness for Military and Veteran Caregivers\n\nThursday\, February 9\, 2023\, 2:00-3:30 p.m. ET \n\nLearning Objectives\n\nIllustrate how states and communities can come together to support military and Veteran caregivers\nHighlight the challenges caregivers face related to financial wellness and the resources available to help\n\nPresenter\n\nShawn Moore\, L.M.S.W.\, Founder\, Executive Director\, Caregivers on the Homefront; Program Manager\, Financial Wellness\, Elizabeth Dole Foundation\n\n\n\n\nWith over 5.5 million military and Veteran caregivers in the United States\, the implementation of the newly released National Strategy to Support Family Caregivers is a critical step forward for those caring for our Nation’s wounded\, ill\, and injured service members and Veterans. Caregivers consistently experience worse health outcomes\, greater challenges in family relationships\, and increased difficulties in the workplace than non-caregivers. Military and Veteran caregivers are unique in that they tend to be younger and serve in caregiver roles longer than their civilian counterparts. \n\n\nThis learning community will provide participants an opportunity to learn in a small group and interactive setting. The objectives of this learning community are to (1) Discover a framework for supporting military and Veteran caregivers\, (2) Examine how both paid and informal caregivers can be recognized and valued in the continuum of care\, and (3) Identify resources available that are specifically tailored for military and Veteran caregivers. \n\n\nThe learning community will meet monthly for three sessions beginning in December 2022 via Zoom. Each session will feature an expert presentation with engaging group discussion incorporated throughout.

SUMMARY:Recovery is Community: The PA Statewide Tobacco-Free Recovery Initiative
DESCRIPTION:Tuesday\, Feb 21 • 12 pm to 1 pm \nFREE. Register online. \nPresented by Tony Klein\, MPA\, NCACII\, & Katie Gassner\, CTTS  \nPennsylvanians who enter recovery from mental and substance use disorders deserve the best care possible. Over the years\, we’ve learned that people who are offered evidenced-based tobacco interventions while in treatment for other addictions have better overall treatment outcomes compared to those who do not. Despite this understanding\, tobacco use is often overlooked in the treatment setting and smoking remains a prime form of socialization in the recovering community. This training provides an overview of the Pennsylvania Statewide Tobacco-Free Recovery Initiative. Advancing a new normal supportive of tobacco interventions is achieved through an integrated\, data-driven systems approach\, community partnerships\, and a strength-based\, recovery-oriented perspective. \nLearning Objectives – Participant will be able to: \n\nDefine the PA Statewide Tobacco-Free Recovery Initiative’s vision and mission.\nCite three strategies to advance evidence-based tobacco use disorder interventions within a recovery-oriented framework.\n\nFree CE credit of 1.0 hour for AMA\, ANCC\, and LSW/LCW/LPC/LMFT will be offered to those who attend. \nRequirements include attendance for the duration of the session and completion of a course evaluation provided at the end of the session.  \nACCREDITATION \nIn support of improving patient care the University of Pittsburgh is jointly accredited by the Accreditation Council for Continuing Medical Education (ACCME)\, the Accreditation Council for Pharmacy Education (ACPE)\, and the American Nurses Credentialing Center (ANCC) to provide continuing education for the health care team. \nPHYSICIAN (CME) \nThe University of Pittsburgh designates this live activity for a maximum of 1.0 AMA PRA Category 1 Credits™. Physicians should claim only the credit commensurate with the extent of their participation in the activity. \nSOCIAL WORK (CEU) \nMercyhurst University’s Department of Social Work is accredited by the Council on Social Work Education and is an approved provider of Social Work\, Marriage & Family Therapist and Professional Counselor continuing education by the Pennsylvania State Licensing Board.
