Our third session of our online series with our partners at the National Health Care for the Homeless Council. Our friend Cindy Manginelli of the NHCHC will present :

Substance Abuse Among Those Experiencing Homelessness. 

Caring for someone with a substance abuse disorder can be a confusing, frightening, maddening experience.  In this training we will provide a basic overview of the kinds of substances that are abused and the effect they have on the body and mind, and on the community and care givers.  We will also examine signs of overdose, withdrawal, and when substance abuse can be life threatening.
