Seeking SUD Services for Teens in Todays Environment

Thursday, June 18, 2026

Many teens are carrying issues as a result of the 2020 pandemic. Living in an isolated world that created an increase in domestic violence and substance misuse has generated a confusing time for our teens and emerging adults. As teens juggle issues at home and the resulting removal from the family, often their own substance use is generated. In this workshop we will discuss the need for treatment, the primary type of services available and guidelines for achieving services. We will also discuss the support essential for our teens as they begin their recovery journey.
