PRESENTATION:  This training will provide participants with an understanding of the science behind Substance Use Disorder (SUD).  Understanding the mechanics of the brain and how SUD happens can provide us with a better avenue for dealing with people who have this disease.  This training will also provide participants with information about particular classes of drugs and how they each affect the brain.  In addition, the training will examine family dynamics and how family members are affected.  Community resources and opportunities for treatment will be explored. As a result of this training:

• Participants will understand the science of addiction and how the brain function is different in someone afflicted with the disease of addiction. 
• Participants will understand the classes of drugs and how they affect people.
• Participants will better understand the resources that are available in our state.
