SUMMARY:When Our Clients Age: Adapting Drug User Health for Older Adults
DESCRIPTION:LIVE WEBINAR | JUNE 16\, 2026 | 12:00pm EASTERN \n\n\n\n				\n		\n					\n					Register Now \n					\n					 \n				\n			\n\n\nSubstance use among older adults is rising—and too often\, it goes unseen. Adults over 55 now experience the highest fatal overdose rates in Maryland\, yet screening\, recognition\, and tailored care for this population remain limited. \n\n\n\nThis webinar will help participants build practical skills for assessing and supporting older clients\, including those with long-term substance use histories. Participants will explore how aging changes the way drugs affect the body\, why overdose risk increases\, and how common signs of substance use may present differently in older adults. The session also focuses on adapting drug user health strategies to be responsive\, respectful\, and stigma-free for an aging population. \n\n\n\nLearning Objectives\n\n\n\nBy the end of the webinar\, participants will be able to: \n\n\n\n\nDescribe current trends in substance use among older adults\n\n\n\nRecognize how aging affects drug metabolism and overdose risk\n\n\n\nIdentify common signs of substance use in older adults\n\n\n\nApply drug user health strategies tailored to an aging population\n\n\n\nIdentify opportunities for engagement without stigma
