Posted On: 08/20/09 | Comments (0)

As I review responses from our annual alumni survey, I am noticing a common thread. Many alumni state that they wish they had developed more knowledge about substance abuse intervention and treatment before graduating. Knowledge about this area is needed in their daily work with families. So if you have space in your schedule, consider enrolling for SSW643 - Drug Policies:Prevention, Treatment, Law and Social Policy. It is still open.
