Special Encore Presentation: More Responsive Care for Women With Addiction

Some of our audience may assume that since a drug, is a drug, is a drug, and addiction is addiction, that we really do not need to go to the trouble of fine-tuning or adapting addiction treatment for women. Yet, we know from research that the more responsive addition treatment programs are toward increasing engagement and retention, the better the treatment outcome; in the life saving process of addiction recovery. Our very special guest today is Becky Flood, CEO of the New Directions for Women in Calif. She and her staff have been national leaders in providing addiction treatment that is responsive to the needs of women.
