LIVE VIRTUAL TRAININGS CURRENTLY OFFERED:
Understanding Veterans & Military Transition
Unique Factors Contributing to Co-Occurring Mental Health and Substance Use Disorders in the Veteran and Military-Connected Population
Theme: How military transition itself can be traumatic
Overview: The session reframes common post-service challenges not as pathology, but as predictable responses to disrupted human needs. Participants gain insight into how loss of role, belonging, and meaning fuels disengagement, risk-taking, and maladaptive coping, and how restoring these foundations improves engagement and outcomes.

Upcoming Dates:
May: 22, 27, 29. 9-1030am ET

Post-Traumatic Growth in Veteran Recovery
Meaning, Identity, and Strengths-Based Pathways for Recovery from Co-Occurring Mental Health & Substance Use Disorders
Theme: How people can grow through trauma and adversity
Overview: Trauma does not have to define the limits of recovery. This training introduces the science of Post-Traumatic Growth (PTG) and demonstrates how adversity can become a catalyst for resilience, meaning, and long-term recovery. Grounded in Positive Psychology, trauma-informed care, and identity-based recovery, the session equips participants to guide clients beyond survival, reduce shame, reconstruct identity, and harness purpose as a stabilizing force in recovery.

Reconnection, Regulation, and Resilience
Supporting Veterans with Co-Occurring Mental Health and Substance Use Disorders
Theme: How resilience is built on regulation and re-connection
Overview: Chronic dysregulation, emotional reactivity, and relapse risk often stem from disrupted self-connection and nervous system imbalance. Participants examine how reconnection often precedes regulation—and regulation precedes resilience. They learn practical tools to help clients move from survival states to proactive recovery.

Upcoming Dates:

Repairing Foundations for Recovery
Supporting Veterans’ Relationships with Self, Others, and Community
Theme: How connection and relationships protect recovery
Overview: Unresolved guilt, shame, resentment, and relational wounds quietly undermine recovery from mental health and substance use challenges. This training focuses on repairing the relational foundations that sustain long-term recovery—starting with the relationship to self and extending outward to family, peers, and community.

A Strengths-Based Approach to Supporting Veterans with Co-Occurring Mental Health and Substance Use Disorders
Theme: How people apply change in recovery

Who is the Expert in the Room?
Peers, Coaches, and Licensed Clinicians in Mental Health and Substance Use Recovery
Theme: How systems work together to improve outcomes
Overview: Recovery outcomes improve when clinicians, peer specialists, and recovery coaches understand—and respect—the unique value each role brings. Participants examine how peer-based and clinical approaches complement one another across prevention, treatment, and long-term recovery—and how misalignment can unintentionally undermine care.
