2016 Webinar 5: Is Prevention a Moral Obligation? DVD
The health and welfare of children is a politically attractive issue; however, our systems of care are set up to be reactive rather than proactive. We spend money addressing difficulties that never need to occur. How do we establish prevention as a priority for health care systems and policy makers? What key actions can be taken to reduce the rate of substance use in pregnancy and improve long-term outcomes for children prenatally exposed to alcohol and illicit drugs? How do we move from multidisciplinary to transdisciplinary systems of care?
