4/29 Live Panel: Addiction Isn't a Crime

 

Addiction Isn’t a Crime: Aligning Law Enforcement, Medicine, and Probation

Wednesday, April 29, 12:00 PM - 1:00 PM ET

This panel brings together leaders from law enforcement, medical treatment, and community supervision to explore the realities of addiction and reentry within the justice system. Through evidence-based insights and frontline experience, panelists will examine why overdose risk spikes after release, how SUD is clinically identified, and why treatment, not punishment, is essential to improving outcomes.


Discussion will focus on addressing misconceptions about medication-assisted treatment (MAT), understanding the barriers people face in the first weeks after release, and highlighting the collaborative practices that reduce recidivism, support recovery, and create safer, more effective reentry pathways.

Our Panelists

Attendees will be able to:

• Explain the unique risks and challenges faced by individuals with SUD during reentry.

• Understand how SUD is clinically identified and how appropriate treatment levels are determined.

• Describe what evidence-based treatment looks like within the justice system.

• Identify common misconceptions within justice settings and how they influence outcomes.

• Understand the core components of an effective reentry plan.

• Recognize the value of cross-agency collaboration.


Attending this FREE event is worth one NAADAC-approved continuing education (CE) hour. Please check with your state board to confirm CE eligibility.
