The New England ATTC in partnership with the Community Care Alliance of Rhode Island is providing targeted TA in “Screening, Brief Intervention & Referral to Treatment (SBIRT) on 8/19/24 from 12:00 pm to 4:00 pm with subject matter expert Taylor D'Addario. Screening, Brief Intervention & Referral to Treatment (SBIRT) is a screening and intervention tool that focuses on the one in five people who may use alcohol or drugs in unhealthy ways but who do not have a substance use disorder (i.e., dependence).  Research shows that people in this category successfully change their use with feedback and brief intervention counseling, using SBIRT methodology.  This training reviews the substance use continuum, evidence for SBIRT, and components of SBIRT. Participants learn to conduct screenings, deliver brief interventions, and make appropriate referrals, all while maintaining fidelity to proven methodologies. This comprehensive approach equips professionals with the skills and confidence to provide high-quality care and improve patient outcomes in substance use treatment.
