CalTrin Science of Social Support

Training Overview

Research demonstrates that one in four children and one in five adults in the United States are struggling with loneliness resulting in behavioral health conditions. Social connections comprise an important component of a happy and healthy life. All people need support in their lives, and especially people who are struggling due to mental health or substance use conditions. This presentation addresses how to work with those in need of expanding their social connections. Data on the benefits of social connections will be provided, in addition to understanding how a lack of connection impacts individuals mentally and physically. Techniques for assessment and development of social connections will also be shared.
