ABOUT:

The New England Addiction Technology Transfer Center (ATTC) is pleased to announce the 7th cohort of the Leadership Development Program (LDP) for addiction professionals from across the continuum of care. This program will focus on key leadership skills using a range of learning methods designed to increase your effectiveness immediately.

This program includes the use of an intact learning community that includes participants from all aspects of care: prevention, intervention, treatment, and recovery. The learning community will be as diverse as possible to represent the profession and those served.

The 7th cohort will be offered as a Hybrid LDP, which has been carefully designed to balance the traditional in-person (F2F) training model with the virtual format thus maintaining the interactive curriculum that is crucial to leadership development and accommodating the needs and challenges we all face in the current global crisis. At the moment the proposed in-person location is Concord, NH.

**Program delivery formats and all COVID-19 policies are subject to change based on the site, updates to COVID safety measures in the state, and our affiliated organizations.

PROGRAM GOALS:

• Address the on-going need for effective individual leadership skill development and increasing the addiction profession’s leadership capacity.
• Provide a learning experience that will ‘accelerate’ leadership development to complement work experience.

Developing effective leaders is of particular importance as the profession faces the overdose crisis, a changing behavioral healthcare landscape, and the impending retirement of many "baby boom" generation leaders.
