Creating a healthier, better connected Gippsland.

The Matilda Centre for Research in Mental Health and Substance Use – Neurodiversity and substance use: what clinicians need to know

The Matilda Centre for Research in Mental Health and Substance Use at the University of Sydney has been funded by the Australian Government Department of Health and Aged Care to develop a series of on-demand webinars on evidence-based practice. Our webinars are freely available and focus on building capacity in relation to evidence-based practice approaches to the management and treatment of co-occurring alcohol and other drug (AOD) and mental health conditions.

All previous webinars are freely available via the Comorbidity Project webinar library.

By the end of this webinar, attendees will be able to:
