Full course description

This course is crafted to empower you, a caregiver working with individuals who have developmental disabilities, to collaboratively support them on their journey through substance use. Throughout the course, you will gain a comprehensive understanding of historical perspectives of caregivers on addictions, vulnerabilities of those with a dual diagnosis, and effective strategies to facilitate recovery. The emphasis of this course is on empowering those under your care to take control of their recovery journey by utilizing strength-based skill building, motivational interviewing, and a person-centered approach.

By the end of this course, you will develop a nuanced understanding of personality disorders and their associated presentations, be able to distinguish between outward emotional/behavioural responses, and respond appropriately to the needs of individuals with a PD.
