DHHS offers free trauma‑informed trainings and seeks interest for 'Dimensions' smoking‑cessation train‑the‑trainer
Summary
The Office of Substance Use and Mental Health announced free trauma‑informed trainings for agency management through a Trauma Informed Utah partnership and solicited provider interest for a University of Colorado 'Dimensions' train‑the‑trainer smoking‑cessation program.
Chanel Long from the Office of Substance Use and Mental Health told providers the office has partnered with Trauma Informed Utah to provide free trauma‑informed approach trainings for management and staff, and said contact information for Becky King (the lead contact) would be posted in the meeting chat for interested agencies.
She also said DHHS is soliciting interest in contracting for the University of Colorado 'Dimensions' training, a train‑the‑trainer smoking‑cessation program that would certify 1–2 staff from an organization to both provide the intervention internally and train other trainers. The training is proprietary to the University of Colorado and DHHS asked potential provider partners to express interest so the department can assess demand for contracting.
Chanel noted January is Substance Use Disorder Treatment Awareness Month and pointed providers to a SAMHSA digital toolkit and campaign materials that DHHS will share in the chat.
