Understanding the Opioid Use Disorder Within the LGBTQ+ Community

March 18, 2020 @ 11:30 am - 1:00 pm

Free

Opioid use disorder has reached an alarming rate in the United States.  As more and more people struggle with opioids, it is important for behavioral healthcare workers to understand how to best support people in need; specifically, members of the lesbian, gay, bisexual, transgender, and queer (LGBTQ+) community.  LGBTQ+ individuals are disproportionately affected by substance use disorders, inclusive of the opioid epidemic.  This presentation will highlight the impact that opioid use disorder has on the LGBTQ+ community, best practices, trauma-informed care, and behavioral health integration into primary care.
