TxSUS Sessions are live webinars with expert speakers discussing key issues at the intersection of policy and practice. The goal of these sessions is to promote awareness, engagement, and support for innovative projects addressing substance use in Texas.
For additional learning opportunities, visit the Center for Substance Use Training and Telementoring (C-STAT).
C-STAT provides free, evidence-based training to an array of healthcare professionals on best practices for responding to substance use. Access ongoing mentoring through their Project ECHO series or request technical assistance to learn more.
