MA OBAT ECHO®: Alcohol, Alcohol Policies and Injustice: The Big Picture
As part of the twice-monthly MA OBAT ECHO® series, David Jernigan, PhD, will review historical injustices around alcohol sale and consumption, explain how alcohol-related injustices continue in the present day, and discuss individual and policy-level interventions to address alcohol-related injustice. The didactic will be followed by a de-identified patient case presentation from an ECHO® participant and recommendations from the panel of experts and attendees.
Boston Medical Center's (BMC) 12-part Massachusetts Office Based Addiction Treatment ECHO® (MA OBAT ECHO®) offers training and support in addiction treatment, with a focus on comprehensive care for patients with substance use disorders (SUDs).
