Many healthcare providers report that addressing alcohol and other drug problems is one of the most challenging areas of their practice. It is important that substance use counsellors can partner with providers to implement cost-effective strategies.
Though adolescent cigarette smoking rates have decreased over the past four decades with fewer than 1 in 25 teens reporting daily tobacco use, e-cigarette use has increased two-fold. There are still lower rates of adolescent nicotine use overall, but a potentially dangerous trend has emerged with the increased use of vaping.

In this free webinar, organised by NAADAC, Julie Owens, a Certified Domestic Violence Counsellor, will discuss the overlapping vulnerabilities.
