Register for upcoming webinars on evidence-based practice

The Matilda Centre for Research in Mental Health and Substance Use at the University of Sydney has been funded by the Australian Government Department of Health to develop a series of on-demand webinars on evidence-based practice. From May, the Comorbidity Project team will host monthly webinars focused on building capacity in relation to evidence-based practice approaches to the management and treatment of co-occurring alcohol and other drug (AOD) and mental health conditions.
