Innovative Interventions for Caregivers with Substance Use Disorders and their Young ChildrenLive Virtual Presentation

Mothers with substance use disorders (SUDs) face a variety of challenges, which make parenting difficult. Stigma, histories of trauma, stress, depression, insecure attachment and disrupted neurological reward systems contribute to harsh and insensitive parenting. Harsh and insensitive parenting can disrupt children’s development with long-term consequences. These co-occurring factors create challenges for parenting effectively and for children’s wellbeing. This talk examines the context of intervention for caregivers with SUD and some innovative approaches to family-focused recovery.
