Description
This workshop will equip those at any level of experience in community development work in three primary areas:
1 – to update their understanding of current trends in mental health, drug use and addiction, and treatment and recovery – especially in under-resourced communities;
2 – to understand the power of recovery storytelling and how it moves the needle on decreasing stigma and increasing hope at both individual and community levels;
3 – to promote the process of recovery storytelling as a collective healing tool for communities.
