Alcohol Use in the Aging Population

This training will explore the unique challenges and considerations related to alcohol use among older adults, a population often overlooked in traditional substance use and mental health frameworks. Participants will learn how generational attitudes toward alcohol use can create a barrier to care and will identify factors that increase the risk for alcohol-related harms in the aging population. Emphasis will be placed on practical harm reduction strategies and communication approached to support clients in making safer choices, while promoting dignity and autonomy.
