ABOUT:
The New England Addiction Technology Transfer Center (ATTC) is pleased to announce the 6th cohort of the Leadership Development Program (LDP) for addiction professionals from across the continuum of care. This program will focus on key leadership skills using a range of learning methods designed to increase your effectiveness immediately.
This program includes the use of an intact learning community that includes participants from all aspects of care: prevention, intervention, treatment, and recovery. The learning community will be as diverse as possible to represent the profession and those served.
We are pleased to offer the 6th cohort virtual LDP, which has been carefully designed to maintain the interactive curriculum that is crucial to leadership development and accommodate the needs and challenges we all face in the current global crisis.

PROGRAM GOALS:
- Address the on-going need for effective individual leadership skill development and increasing the addiction profession’s leadership capacity.
- Provide a learning experience that will ‘accelerate’ leadership development to complement work experience.
Developing effective leaders is of particular importance as the profession faces the overdose crisis, a changing behavioral healthcare landscape, and the impending retirement of many "baby boom" generation leaders.
