For many years, returning to work has proven successful for people in SUD treatment. Returning to work helps clients establish an income, improve their self-esteem and has shown lower rates of relapse. This course is taken from the SAMHSA Advisory on Integrating Vocational Services into Substance Use Disorder Treatment that was published in 2021.
