Paraprofessional SUDCs offer one path to helping close this gap. The current study presents outcomes from a paraprofessional SUDC certificate program for Bachelor of Social Work (BSW) students. Student data (N = 66) were used to examine pre- to post-program changes in generalized SUDC knowledge and pre- to posttest changes in knowledge and self-efficacy from evidence-based workshops. Paired sample t-tests indicated that program participation significantly increased generalized SUDC knowledge. Participation in workshops significantly increased knowledge of motivational interviewing, integrative medicine, harm reduction, and grief and loss and self-efficacy related to integrative medicine and harm reduction. BSW students gain generalized and treatment-specific knowledge via participation in a SUDC certificate program. The deployment of paraprofessional SUDCs may provide one strategy to reduce treatment gaps","PeriodicalId":45598,"journal":{"name":"Journal of Social Work Practice in the Addictions","volume":" ","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":0.8,"publicationDate":"2023-06-22","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"46475954","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Rose","doi":"10.1080/1533256X.2023.2216519","DOIUrl":"https://doi.org/10.1080/1533256X.2023.2216519","url":null,"abstract":"Social Work practitioners have become receptive to the need to seek out and utilize empirically support interventions, or evidence-based interventions as they are more commonly known. While these practitioners have become adept at recognizing such interventions, they may be less skillful at seeking out research that does not seem directly related to practice, or basic nonintervention research, supporting interventions. This relationship between intervention research and basic research is explored in the current discussion. For social workers, access to research is critical in supporting good clinical decisionmaking as to who receives services, how services are provided, and policy that undergirds practice. Many agency administrators are coming to believe that practitioners should be integral in decisions about what get researched, even though they may feel such concerns are disconnected from their everyday duties with clients and communities (Romeo, 2018). At the same time, funding bodies are focusing on implementation research to encourage systematic application of research findings to practice. Moving from basic science research to practice is a principal goal of facilitating evidenced-based service delivery (Olswang & Prelock, 2015), however this remains a significant challenge. Research-based partnerships have certainly been recommended in many educational and social service areas to accomplish the goal (Goldstein et al., 2019), but these have also proved difficult to implement in complex settings. It seems critical to build some consensus in the social work environment that supports and values research in substance use treatment. It has been advised that components of this could include the development of more effective communication networks, better links between researchers and clinicians, and greater involvement of practitioners in the research process (Hemsley-Brown and Sharp (2010). The current state of this process is the focus of our discussion today. We are speaking with Dr. Michael Fendrich, the Scientific Director of Advocate Aurora Research Institute in Milwaukee, Wisconsin. He was formerly the Associate Dean for Research at the University of Connecticut, where he is Professor Emeritus, and the Director of the Center for Applied Behavioral Health Research at the University of Wisconsin-Milwaukee. Before that, he was a Professor of Psychiatry at the University of Illinois at Chicago.","PeriodicalId":45598,"journal":{"name":"Journal of Social Work Practice in the Addictions","volume":"23 1","pages":"258 - 264"},"PeriodicalIF":0.8,"publicationDate":"2023-05-25","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"46694170","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

While some empirical studies have examined the impact of physical activity (PA) as a complement to treatment, they are limited in sample size or they fail to consider the unique physiological status of women. In preparation for a developmental study, we took steps to examine the feasibility of a fitness-focused intervention with women (n = 25) in treatment. To that end, we conducted a mixed method study with actual physical wellness and perceptions of physical wellness as the target domains. Participation in PA was viewed positively; however, women wished they engaged in exercise more consistently. Ultimately, women viewed exercise as a means to feeling better about themselves emotionally and physically. Recommendations link findings to practice including psycho education, group-based goal setting, and offering a variety of PA modalities.","PeriodicalId":45598,"journal":{"name":"Journal of Social Work Practice in the Addictions","volume":"106 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2023-04-12","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"134950359","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Coping with discrimination through substance use may impact this relationship. Therefore, the current study aims to understand how substance use may mediate the relationship between microaggressions and sleep. In 2020, SMM were recruited for an online survey. Participants responded to items about sleep disturbance, sexual orientation microaggressions, and recent substance use. Multivariate regressions investigated the association of microaggressions with sleep disturbance and if substance use mediates this relationship. Microaggressions were associated with both sleep disturbance and substance use. The final model was significant, and a Sobel test indicated that substance use partially mediates the relationship between microaggressions and sleep disturbance. These findings build evidence that increased substance use due to discrimination is contributing to increased sleep disturbance. Social workers should prioritize assessing experiences of discrimination to identify risk for substance use and sleep disturbance.","PeriodicalId":45598,"journal":{"name":"Journal of Social Work Practice in the Addictions","volume":"109 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2023-04-05","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"136005196","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
