SUMMARY:Community Reinforcement and Family Training (CRAFT) Approach to Substance Use/Misuse Intervention- ORN Webinar
DESCRIPTION:Register Here\n  \nFor families and communities impacted by the opioid and substance use disorder epidemic\, finding a way to lovingly support a friend or family member struggling with using substances\, while still maintaining healthy boundaries\, can often be challenging. \nWe are excited to host an introductory presentation on Community Reinforcement and Family Training (CRAFT). The CRAFT approach to substance use/misuse intervention teaches family members how to support and communicate with someone who has a substance use disorder or who is misusing drugs and alcohol. This approach focuses on using positive reinforcement to combat substance use and encourage steps toward recovery. CRAFT can help family members support a loved one without relying on confrontation or shame. Instead\, loved ones focus on rewarding positive behaviors to help guide behavior change with empathy and care. \nThis presentation will feature a panel of experts familiar with CRAFT and have trained and/or implemented CRAFT in their communities. There will be time for Q & A following the presentations. \nFor more information and registration. \nProgram provided by the Western Interstate Commission for Higher Education (WICHE) with support from ORN.

SUMMARY:The 7Cs Framework for Substance Misuse Prevention
DESCRIPTION:Register Here\nWednesday\, November 19\, 2025 @ 12:00-1:00pm ET\n  \nDescription\nYouth and young adults impacted by familial substance misuse often face complex challenges\, internalized stigma\, and difficult questions that can be hard to process. As a support professional—whether you’re a counselor\, social worker\, therapist\, educator\, or prevention specialist—having the right tools and language to engage youth in meaningful\, developmentally appropriate ways can make a profound difference. The 7Cs Framework for Substance Misuse Prevention is designed to equip professionals with a compassionate\, prevention-based approach. Rooted in the 7Cs framework—I didn’t CAUSE it. I can’t CONTROL it. I can’t CURE it. BUT I can take CARE of myself\, by COMMUNICATING my feelings\, making healthy CHOICES\, and CELEBRATING myself-this session provides practical strategies to help youth & families build protective factors and navigate the ripple effects of substance misuse in the family. Participants will leave with digital and printable resources ready to use in clinical\, educational\, and community settings. \nPresenter\nSarah Behm (she/her)\, PPS\, MBA\, works as the Director of the Eluna Resource Center\, supporting children and families impacted by grief and addiction with personalized support & resources (in Spanish and English). Specializing in trauma-informed care and social emotional learning\, Behn previously worked with over 300 schools across the United States\, including Puerto Rico and Guam\, to reduce bullying and incorporate restorative practices. Behn also led the research and design of a peer-to-peer alcohol & drug prevention training for middle and high school students. As a seasoned consultant and credentialed school counselor\, Behm believes in the power of partnering with families\, support professionals\, and communities to foster unity and transformation. \nLearning Objectives\n\nParticipants will be able to summarize the meaningful impact of the 7Cs through real-life stories\, examples\, and their relevance to professional practice.\nParticipants will be able to integrate the 7Cs into their interactions\, prevention strategies\, and programming using a strengths-based approach.\nParticipants will be able to access and implement practical tools and resources to support youth and families across home\, school\, and community environments.\n\nContent Level\nAll levels. \n\nBeginning level courses introduce learners to a content area; include information about a condition\, treatment method\, or issue; and involve learning and comprehending content.\nIntermediate level courses provide information that builds on knowledge practitioners with some experience already have. These courses focus on skill-building or adding knowledge\, possibly following a brief overview of basic information\, and involve using information in concrete situations and understanding the underlying structure of the material.\nAdvanced-level courses provide content for participants who have been working in the content area and have a clear understanding of the issues. These courses cover and address the complexities involved in the work and involve synthesizing material to create new patterns or structures\, or evaluating material for a specific purpose.\n\nInteractivity\nPolls and Q&A. \nPrice\nEducation is FREE to all professionals.
