About This Book
Finding the time and funds to attend conferences or to earn continuing education contact hours isn't always possible. The Hazelden Clinical Innovators Series makes it easier for you.
Historically, addiction research and treatment have been focused on men. Now there is a growing recognition of the need for gender-responsive and trauma-informed treatment services for women with substance-use disorders. This manual and DVD provide an overview of what is essential in creating woman-centered services, including a theoretical foundation and guiding principles, a discussion of what counselors need to know and do in order to be effective, and a description of important program elements. The complete package is part of Hazelden’s Clinical Innovators Series and includes a self-test for continuing education (CEs).
