Building relationships with families in recovery and their children who might have had prenatal exposure presents its own unique challenges.

This online course includes six modules, each facilitated in a live, interactive webinar format! The webinars are followed by six monthly one-hour reflective practice sessions. The live sessions run from Monday, September 19 through Tuesday, October 11. Attendance is required at all live sessions. CMEs/CEUs are available for specific disciplines.
This course is limited to 18 participants.
