Part two of a two-part special! Join Ed Baker and his distinguished guest, Todd Mandell, MD, as they continue to discuss the American Society of Addiction Medicine’s 2019 expanded definition of addiction. What is meant by addiction, brain disease, and recovery? These are important questions, and Dr. Mandell answers them with the perspective of a Board Certified Psychiatrist with added qualifications in Addiction Psychiatry and who has 30 years' experience in the field of addiction psychiatry. Especially interesting are Dr.Mandell’s views on empowerment and choice. Joining Dr. Mandell with his valued perspective is Cam Lauf, Certified Recovery Coach.

Working with communities to address the opioid crisis.
SAMHSA’s State Targeted Response Technical Assistance (STR-TA) grant created the Opioid Response Network to assist STR grantees, individuals and other organizations by providing the resources and technical assistance they need locally to address the opioid crisis.
Technical assistance is available to support the evidence-based prevention, treatment, and recovery of opioid use disorders.
Funding for this initiative was made possible (in part) by grant no. 6H79TI080816 from SAMHSA. The views expressed in written conference materials or publications and by speakers and moderators do not necessarily reflect the official policies of the Department of Health and Human Services; nor does mention of trade names, commercial practices, or organizations imply endorsement by the U.S. Government.
