Bisexual Women and Substance Misuse Kate Bishop, MSSA April 27, 2022, 1:00pm-3:00pm EST COURSE DESCRIPTION Though LGBTQ people in general report higher rates of substance use, bisexual women are particularly vulnerable to substance use disorders. Studies have consistently shown bisexual women at the highest risk among sexual and gender minority groups, including significantly higher rates of alcohol, tobacco, marijuana, opioid misuse and binge drinking than lesbians or heterosexual women. Studies have looked at the constellation of pressures that may contribute to this alarming disparity, including higher rates of sexual trauma, poverty, and discrimination coming from both heterosexual and LGBTQ communities. This webinar will describe the scope of bisexual women's substance use, what factors may contribute to drug and alcohol dependence, and ways prevention workers can support bisexual women who are dealing with chaotic substance misuse in their lives. LEARNING OBJECTIVES Describe the scope of substance use among bisexual women. Explore the unique challenges many bisexual women face which may contribute to elevated rates of substance use disorders within the population. Identify intervention strategies to support bisexual women who wish to address chaotic substance use in their lives. PRESENTERS Kate Bishop, MSSA, the Education Coordinator at the LGBT Health Resource Center of Chase Brexton, is a seasoned professional development trainer with expertise in working with LGBTQ populations, sexual and reproductive health care, adolescent development, intimate partner violence, and sexual trauma. She is certified as a trainer through GLSEN (Gay, Lesbian and Straight Education Network) as well as SAGE (Services and Advocacy for GLBT Elders). Before joining the Chase Brexton team, she developed the capacity building program at the University of Maryland School of Medicine’s STAR TRACK Adolescent HIV program, providing cultural responsiveness trainings for agencies that serve sexual minority youth of color. Ms. Bishop holds a Bachelor of Arts in Gender Studies from Hiram College and a Masters in Social Work from Case Western Reserve University.

There Has Always Been Drinking in America: Alcohol, History, Culture, and What it all Means for Prevention   April 14, 2022   Description Americans drink to celebrate and to mourn. We toast a new addition to our family, an engagement, a marriage, a new job, and a life well-lived. We open a bottle to break bread with friends, to watch sports, to pray, and to drown our sorrows. But we also suffer from addiction, violence, motor vehicle crashes, and death, all at the hands of alcohol. This webinar explores America’s cultural relationship to alcohol, from the thirteen colonies and prohibition to today’s music and movies. In prevention, we often focus so intently on our communities and strategies that we fail to step back and look at the much, much bigger picture of the cultural and historical context of what we are trying to accomplish. Using humor and examples from history, movies, music, television, and more, Dr. Rodney Wambeam provides the larger context of what it means to prevent the misuse, abuse, and devastating consequences of a substance that has always been part of the American experience.    Objectives By the end of the webinar: Participants will be able to describe the role alcohol played in early America when alcohol was considered safer than water. Participants will understand past prevention efforts that focused upon a moral approach to prevention and why they "failed." Participants will learn to examine how popular culture (movies, television, music, social media, and more) help to define how Americans use and feel about alcohol.   Presenter Rodney Wambeam, Ph.D. is a Senior Research Scientist at the Wyoming Survey & Analysis Center of the University of Wyoming. Dr. Wambeam is Principal Investigator of the State Incentive Grant, Strategic Prevention Framework State Incentive Grant, and Partnerships for Success evaluations in multiple states, as well as numerous other state and local level research projects. He is author of “The Community Needs Assessment Workbook” from Oxford University Press and a popular presenter across America. Dr. Wambeam is best known for his plenary presentation titled “Boomers, Xers, and Millennials: How New Research on Generations can inform the Future of Prevention,” which he delivered more than thirty times around the country.            Webinar Recording and Slides Webinar Recording Webinar Slide-Deck   Questions?

Prevention science seeks to identify what issues affect communities, the best practices to address these issues, and the most effective ways of disseminating that knowledge.   This product was developed for prevention professionals and other stakeholders interested in learning about prevention science and how it supports prevention efforts. It defines prevention science, its domains, and its impacts on prevention goals

Second, we will explore how existing primary prevention programs can be tailored to reach Hispanic/Latin communities through surface-structure and deep structure cultural adaptations using worked examples from the field. This event will be formatted as a 45-minute presentation, followed by a 45-minute session of questions, answers and guided discussion.  By the end of this presentation and discussion, participants will be able to: Describe trends in substance misuse for Hispanic/Latin Americans Recognize the importance of identifying intra-ethnic differences in the Hispanic/Latin population Discuss surface-structure and deep-structure cultural adaptations used in substance use prevention programs   Presenter Dr. Tim Grigsby is an Assistant Professor in the Department of Social and Behavioral Health in the University of Nevada, Las Vegas (UNLV) School of Public Health.
