Substance Use Disorder and the LGBTQ+ Community: Assessing the Impact of Compounded Stigma and Treatment Considerations — Webinar Series Monday, October 30 and Monday, November 6, 2 p.m. ET

Substance use is a complex issue that affects individuals from all walks of life, including the LGBTQ+ community. Members of this community face unique challenges when seeking help for addiction. Stigma, shame, and a lack of family support can all make it difficult for individuals to access the resources they need to overcome substance use disorders. In addition to providing insight into the unique challenges faced by the LGBT+ community, this webinar aims to provide information on effective and culturally competent treatment to the LGBTQ+ population. https://attcnetwork.org/centers/mid-america-attc/event/substance-use-disorder-lgbtq-community-session-1?utm_source=SAMHSA&utm_campaign=addcd0310a-EMAIL_CAMPAIGN_2023_10_17_08_03&utm_medium=email&utm_term=0_-addcd0310a-%5BLIST_EMAIL_ID%5D
