SUPAR Conference: Transforming Substance Use Prevention and Recovery
“What I'm most impressed with is the integrated piece of it- and that's what you touched on- and you're even changing the language. All of these threads really come together and really came together.”
Picture a community coming together to tackle substance use head-on. That's the essence of the SUPAR Conference, an event that's reshaping how we think about prevention and recovery. In this episode of 'Sober on Purpose', Tanya Gioia chats with Dr. Steve Wright and Nancy Beste, the masterminds behind SUPAR, to uncover their groundbreaking strategies. They bring a wealth of experience from the medical field, community leadership, and personal recovery journeys to create a holistic approach to substance use disorders.
The conference doesn't just focus on the individual; it highlights the crucial role of community and family support in the recovery process. Dr. Wright and Nancy emphasize addressing underlying trauma, blending medical and behavioral health treatments, and the power of language in shaping recovery. By bringing together doctors, psychotherapists, judges, law enforcement, and recovery survivors, SUPAR aims to educate and inspire a more compassionate and effective recovery network.
