Medically Assisted Recovery Support
PRS's recognize that every recovery journey is unique, and for many, this includes Medically Assisted Treatment (MAT). MARS provides a safe, non-judgmental space that offers specialized support while respecting an individual's choice to utilize MAT.

Advertise Childhood Experiences
The ACE Study is a significant research initiative designed to determine the prevalence of adverse childhood experiences in the general population and understand their long-term impact on later life. In this training, we will provide a deep dive into what ACEs are, how the study originated, and why our childhood experiences have such a lasting effect on us. By the end of this session, your mindset will shift from asking "What’s wrong with you?" to "What happened to you?"
