Many of us remember the PSA: This is Your Brain on Drugs. Although the “war on drugs” has had many unintended negative consequences, we remember the egg in the skillet—a powerful image connecting brain function to drug use. Since the 80’s we’ve learned much about the effects of both trauma and opioids on brain structure and chemistry. In this webinar, we will provide participants the tools to confidently discuss the basic science of the surprisingly similar effects of trauma and opioids on the brain, as well as medication and therapeutic interventions, with clients, colleagues, and policy makers.

Substance use is a challenging issue facing domestic violence survivors and the programs that serve them. The national opioid epidemic has intensified the problem.
But progress is being made. We are identifying promising approaches and building community capacity to address the complex needs of survivors. Recognition of the impact of trauma on survivors’ use of substances as well as the role of substance use-related coercion by perpetrators has led to more integrated approaches.
This webinar will highlight strategies for addressing the multiple factors that contribute to substance use in the context of domestic violence; promising approaches to the opioid epidemic by rural domestic violence programs; and an evidence-based intervention to increase safety for people dealing with substance use and trauma.
This webinar is co-sponsored by the U.S. Department of Justice, Office on Violence Against Women and the U.S. Department of Health and Human Services, Administration on Children and Families, Families and Youth Services Bureau, Division of Family Violence Prevention and Services in honor of Domestic Violence Awareness Month.

Women with substance use concerns often experience unique barriers to treatment and specialized needs that go unmet within traditional treatment settings, including: experiences of trauma and intimate partner violence, co-occurring health conditions, increased economic instability, family and parenting needs, medication assisted treatment during pregnancy, and gender-specific risk factors. This trans-inclusive webinar defines what it means for services to be comprehensive, trauma-informed, and gender responsive for women; identifies issues to consider when working with women, including women who are pregnant or parenting; and discusses how to apply gender-responsive care in the delivery of behavioral health treatment and recovery services in order to improve outcomes for women and their families.

Florida’s Early Childhood Courts: Transforming Child Welfare
Thursday, June 6, 2019

Every six minutes in the U.S., an infant, toddler or child under the age of 3 is removed from their homes for alleged abuse and neglect and placed in state custody through the child welfare system (Zero to Three). Florida’s twenty-two Early Childhood Court (ECC) teams serve families with children under three years of age in dependency court. Based on the national Safe Babies Court Team model, Florida’s ECCs help young children to have safe, stable placement in as short a time as possible, using a trauma-informed, developmentally sensitive, attachment-focused approach – an approach designed to and break the multigenerational cycle of child maltreatment. The combination of a trauma-informed judge, a coordinated team approach, child/parent therapy and other wraparound services and supports “flips the script” to heal underlying trauma for parents struggling with substance use and mental health related issues, family violence, and other trauma, and transforms the way dependency courts work. Caregivers can receive these services to strengthen bonds and further support healing, with sensitivity to placement and transitions towards achieving permanency. Compelling data show expedited permanency and reduced subsequent maltreatment. During this webinar, Judge Lynn Tepper and Dr. Mimi Graham will showcase the process and the compelling outcomes of Florida’s Early Childhood Courts.

Dr. Graham co-founded the Florida Association for Infant Mental Health in 2002 and built a professional development network in Florida and integrated infant mental health across systems. As a member of the Florida Supreme Court Committee on Children, she created partnerships to create Florida’s Early Childhood Court Initiative, an innovative approach to break the multigenerational cycle of abuse.

Accidental drug overdose is the leading cause of death for people under age 50 in the U.S., claiming over 72,000 lives in 2017 (CDC WONDER). People who experience abuse from their intimate partners are at increased risk for substance use concerns, and often have a harder time getting help because of the ways that their partner sabotages their attempts at recovery, a form of abuse known as substance use coercion. Information and resources presented in this webinar will support advocates to empower survivors with potentially life-saving information on how to prevent and reverse overdose, including information on the opioid overdose antidote naloxone (Narcan®), risk factors for overdose, advocacy strategies to reduce the risk of overdose, evidence-based approaches, as well as cutting-edge innovations in the fight against fatal overdose. This webinar is relevant for DV advocates, program managers/directors, DV/SA coalition members, administrators, policy makers, substance use counselors, mental health practitioners, community health workers, and outreach specialists.
Objectives:
- Identify factors that increase the risk of an accidental fatal opioid overdose.
- Identify signs of opioid overdose and steps in preventing fatal overdose.
- Describe innovative collaborations and evidence-based strategies in preventing overdose.
