Welcome to the Scope of Practice Podcast
As a workforce development agency, the CCB recognizes that there are amazing things happening in the world of Substance Use Disorder Prevention, Treatment, and Recovery - much of which doesn't make its way to those working in 'boots on the ground" positions. Our goal is to bring some of these things to you in an effort to elicit conversation.
Sometimes controversial, always free.

About Scope of Practice
As a workforce development organization that is focused on competency and ethic, the Connecticut Certification Board wanted to design a program that focuses on issues and information that the SUD professional may not otherwise be exposed to. We know that some of our topics and guests are controversial, including that content was an important part of our planning - it elicits conversation and may even challenge how we think about our work. We'd love you to join us with open eyes and an open mind! Thanks for listening!
