We will begin with an overview of what addiction is, discussing causes, triggers, related trauma, myths and biases, and the relationship between substance use and mental health. We will examine the role of leadership in the community and the responsibility to provide safe spaces and we will also focus on tools for providing support to addicts in community spaces. We will end the class with a bit of a treat and discuss meditation techniques for the recovering addict.

In service to my community, I offer this class without any fees.
