Relapse Prevention March 27, 2012

"Relapse Prevention" will be presented by Jason Schwartz, LMSW; Dawn Farm Clinical Director; and Isaac Williamson, LMSW, Dawn Farm therapist. The relapse process begins before alcohol/other drug use resumes. This program will discuss the dynamics of relapse, the warning signs that lead the chemically dependent person into a relapse, and strategies to prevent relapse and handle high-risk situations. This program is part of the FREE, annual Dawn Farm Education Series. Our presentations offer helpful information that supports people with alcohol and other drugs addiction in achieving, maintaining, and strengthening their recoveries. The series educates family members on issues relating to addiction and its effect on the family, and offers information that will be useful for family members and friends in relating to people with alcohol and other drug addiction whether they are actively using or in recovery. Professionals and students will also benefit from this pertinent information. All programs are free and open to anyone interested. Registration is not required. 1.5 hours of free C.E. approved by MCBAP (Michigan Certification Board for Addiction Professionals) is offered for each workshop. A certificate to document attendance is provided on request. The Education Series is organized by Dawn Farm, a non-profit community of programs providing a continuum of chemical dependency services.
