ABOUT THE WEBINAR SERIES

As part of its ongoing effort to promote alternatives to seclusion and restraint and other forms of coercive interventions, SAMHSA’s Promoting Alternatives to Seclusion and Restraint through Trauma-informed Practices, will host a 3-part webinar series to be followed by an ongoing virtual dialogue with presenters and experts in the field through SAMHSA’s BHTalk web site (http://www.bhtalk.org/Groups.aspx - Community Dedicated to Trauma-Informed Practices and Seclusion and Restraint Prevention Blog) and subsequent written brief to inform the field on promising practices.

The new series for the webinar will be up soon. In the meantime please log on to BHTalk to listen to the older webinars and access the powerpoints.
