Hope is so much more than just a feeling. It is a goal, a motivator and a strategy. Research has discovered that hope is also a science- a measurable, teachable, and evidence-based driver of resilience and recovery. Hope strengthens pathways to prevention, supports lifesaving rescue efforts, sustains engagement in treatment, and empowers long-term recovery.
Join us at the 7th annual Southern Nevada Substance Misuse and Overdose Prevention Summit, The Science of Hope: Strategies to Reduce Substance use and Build Resilience in Our Community, as we collaborate on how embedding the science of hope into policy, practice, and partnerships can have a positive impact on ourselves, the people we serve and our communities.
