designed for mental health and substance abuse professionals.
"Understanding Addiction: Mental Health & Substance Abuse Symposium"

This year's event will focus on providing an in-depth professional
development opportunity for substance abuse professionals, educators,
counselors, community resource providers, and anyone that may work with
those struggling with an addiction. Sessions will also focus on
recognizing addictive behaviors and the connections between substance
abuse and mental health illness.

Lazarus; M.Lt. Maxine Wright, Asheboro Police Department (retired); and
Ann Shaw, NAMI. Participants will be awarded 0.4 CEUs. The cost is $10,
