Southeast ATTC - Ask the Experts
In February 2020, SATTC began to host "Ask the Expert" on the 2nd Tuesday of every month on topics surrounding Substance Use Disorders (SUDs), co-occurring diseases, health disparities, and more. Experts in the field will share the latest knowledge and answer questions from our community.
As professionals and practitioners move beyond webinars and training to more Intensive Technical Assistance (TA) needs, Ask the Expert becomes an infinite space to ask questions and increase your knowledge on some of the most popular and buzzing topics in the behavioral health and SUD fields.
Objectives
To increase the knowledge capacity surrounding SUDs/OUDs
To increase the awareness of emerging SUD hot topics and provide expert-level knowledge on myths surrounding many of them.

Strategic Integration of Mental Health/SUD into Primary Care
Since 2002, SATTC Faith Initiative, "Let's Have the Conversation! One Voice: One Mission", has been dedicated to bridging the gap between community providers, and faith-based leaders in the southeast region. Through the facilitation of conferences, educational events, leadership academies, roundtables, and listening sessions, SATTC has been able to bring together interfaith leaders to discuss how to be a catalyst for change in their communities.
SATTC is committed and understands the importance of collaborating with and enhancing the knowledge and skills of faith leaders to help individuals suffering from substance use disorders (SUD). SATTC invites faith leaders in Alabama, Florida, Georgia, Kentucky, Mississippi, North Carolina, and South Carolina to join us and become an integral part of the conversation on substance use disorders.
