Conferencia sobre recuperación – Adicción y posibilidades de recuperación en un mundo cambiante

2 noviembre 2010

Leaders in the field will discuss the evidence base for drug and alcohol recovery models and what the implications are for therapeutic interventions. Using examples of best practice we will explore how drug treatment systems can gear up for the increased demand for recovery options from the public; the political support for recovery options and how to make this possible within the economic climate.
