Webinar | PRODEPENDENCE: Moving Beyond Codependency
On Friday 30th October, ISSUP Philippines presented Part I of their Webinar Series which focused on 'Prodependence: Moving Beyond Codependency'.
Prodependence is a new concept in addiction healthcare. It is intended to improve the ways that we treat loved ones of a person with, or suffering from, addiction or substance use disorder, offering them more dignity for their suffering than blame for the problem.
Time: October 29th 7pm PDT / October 30th 10am Philippines Time
Learning Outcomes:
• Identify the difference between co-dependency and prodependence
• Identify how it can better support treatment and recovery providers in dealing with families of people with SUDs
• Identify ways in which family members can support their loved ones’ recovery
