Are you interested in supporting your behavioral health organization in going tobacco-free, or enhancing your current policy and cessation supports? Need assistance in how to engage leadership, staff and clients around next steps?
The National Council’s National Behavioral Health Network (NBHN) funded by the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention and SAMHSA’s National Center of Excellence for Tobacco Free Recovery (SAMHSA-CTFR) operated by UCSF’s Smoking Cessation Leadership Center are pleased to offer two free virtual trainings this summer on creating and enhancing tobacco-free facilities to address the needs of individuals with behavioral health conditions. 4.75 units of FREE credit can be earned through UCSF for participants who join either LIVE session, on August 6, 2020 or August 12, 2020 (see registration pages for specific guidance).
