This webinar is aimed at managers and frontline workers from health and social care, voluntary sector and other
key services who are interested in exploring psychosocial interventions within the context of alcohol and other
substance use.
It will be a mix of presentations and short interactive activities and will cover: exploring our own understanding
of psychosocial interventions; how different literature and policy guidelines define psychosocial interventions;
what psychosocial interventions look like in practice and how any information shared on the day has shaped our
understanding.
Target Audience:
This event has been developed to support managers and frontline workers from health and social care,
voluntary sector and other key services who are working with people who have dependency issues related to
alcohol and other substances and who feel a shared understanding of psychosocial interventions is important
for services working together.
