The Alcohol and Other Drugs Social Work Faculty Education Program (ADEP)
Evaluating Social Work Skills
Our Partnership
We worked with a variety of academic and community partners to design a curriculum to increase knowledge and confidence teaching alcohol and other drugs content among social work faculty, along with strengthening their clinical skills. We evaluated the success of that program with the help of our partners, and believe the research and ingenuity achieved by collaborating with partners from schools such as the University of Colorado - Boulder's will help develop a more skilled and effective population of social workers.
