Learning Objectives: 1)Attendees will develop habits related to deconstruction of aspects of varied domains within the recovering addicts life into factors of the addicts behavioral equation that can be modified such that the likelihood of emission of toxic, drug use/relapse behaviors is decreased, replaced with increased likelihood of emission of alternative and incompatible behaviors that are deemed healthier and more likely to enhance the addict's reanimation and recovery. 2) attendees will apply public health principles and techniques, such as haddon's matrix and strategies for injury control modified for addiction recovery, to circumstances and events of specific patients 3) while discussing and better understanding currently popular behaviorally based approaches focused on contingency management, attendees will practice development and implementation of approaches focused on decreasing the likelihood of emission of drug use and relapse behaviors by robust adjustment of the factors of the antecedent state
