Learning Interactions with Valued Experts (LIVE)
Registration is now open for Lunchtime LIVE (Learning Interactions with Valued Experts), a new monthly webinar series focused on understanding the impact of substance use disorders on child welfare practice. The series provides access to content experts and an opportunity to explore practice applications across systems. The goal is to improve the use of evidence-based practices in child welfare, courts, and treatment systems that will assist families impacted by substance abuse. After the webinar, participants receive a summary of the session with links and resources to encourage additional learning. Join Lunchtime LIVE from noon to 1 p.m. on Fridays at the end of each month starting in March. Scheduled topics include “Understanding Addiction: Implications for Practice” (March 31), “Medication Assisted Treatment—Supporting Parents & Assuring Child Safety” (April 28), “Relating Current Ohio Opiate Epidemic Trends to Child Welfare Practice” (May 26), and “Best Practice Spotlight—Engaging Families in the Treatment Process” (June 23). The training is made possible by the Ohio Child Welfare Training Program’s Substance Abuse Training Partnership, and caseworkers/supervisors can count the time as supplemental training.
