Unlock the Power to Transform Lives: Introducing the Addiction Intervention Strategies Certificate Program
in Partnership with
The Colorado Chiropractic Association and The American College of Addictions and Compulsive Disorders
REGISTRATION DEADLINE: 12/27/2024
Colorado, like all states, face unique challenges with addiction, particularly due to the opioid crisis and the increasing use of substances like methamphetamine and fentanyl. Chiropractors who are actively involved in addiction intervention strategies can help tackle these challenges head-on.
According to the U.S. Department of Health and Human Services, up to 20% of patients in medical and chiropractic offices already suffer from a substance use disorder. This program will train you to identify those patients and improve their care, and improve the lives of their families.
The Colorado Chiropractic Association (CCA) is launching a first-of-its-kind certification program aimed at equipping chiropractors with the tools needed to work with patients dealing with substance use disorders. This initiative is part of a broader effort to enhance the role of chiropractors in private practice, address the growing need for inclusive care, and collaborate with other healthcare professionals in managing behavioral health issues. Chiropractic care is an important piece in expanding nonpharmacological treatment, delivering inclusive care and supporting recovery.
This certification program will be administered by the CCA in conjunction with the American College of Addictionology & Compulsive Disorders (ACACD). This 5 weekend (75-hour) certification program is open to all healthcare professionals with an emphasis for chiropractors. All training is evidence based. Upon successful completion, the Addiction Intervention Strategies Certification Credential (C.AIS) is granted and the attendee will have advanced standing with the ACACD Diplomate Program.
