SUMMARY:WASAVP Presents: What Preventionists Need to Know About Sedatives (Including Alcohol)
DESCRIPTION:Sedative drugs – especially alcohol — cause more overall harm than trendier drugs because they are common\, accepted\, and easy for young people to access. But they tend to take a backseat to newer\, headline grabbing drugs like fentanyl and methamphetamine.\nTo update the prevention field on sedative drugs (including alcohol)\, the Washington Association for Substance Misuse and Violence Prevention (WASAVP) is offering a training on June 4\, 2026\, from 1–3 PM: “What Preventionists Need to Know About Sedatives (Including Alcohol).” Please register and encourage your colleagues to register as well. \nEventbrite registration opens May 13\, 2026\, at rb.gy/a8glfa. The workshop costs about $120 total\, which includes the $100 registration fee plus Eventbrite charges and Washington State sales tax. \nPlease copy the registration link into your browser if it does not work when you click on it. \nParticipants who complete the webinar will receive a certificate for 2 Continuing Education Hours. The training has also been submitted to the state prevention certification board for approval as 2 Drug Education Continuing Education Hours.\nThe facilitator/trainer is Steven Freng\, Psy.D.\, MSW\, CEO\, Community Network Services. \nThe training will cover the following topics:\n•	History\, cultural contexts and science about sedative and alcohol use.\n•	Current incidence and prevalence data.\n•	Effects\, impacts\, and consequences of sedative use.\n•	Pharmaceutical sedatives not developed for human use.\n•	Effects\, impacts and consequences of alcohol use\, including the outcomes for prenatal exposure. \nFor more information\, contact Steve Freng\, cnsseattle@aol.com\, or\, Scott Waller\, tumh2o99@comcast.net. \n“Therapeutic Court Association of Washington is sharing this event for informational purposes only and is not affiliated with\, endorsing\, or sponsoring the event.”
