The Community Voices in Recovery course centers minoritized voices in continuing education (CE) through the art of storytelling. Storytelling holds the potential to promote empathy and understanding perspectives because it counters negative stereotypes and promotes connection on a universal human level. We use this narrative approach to help healthcare providers and allied health professionals provide optimal addiction care for minoritized patients. Minoritized treatment seekers (e.g., racial or ethnic minorities, members of the LGBTQ+ community, and those formerly incarcerated and/or homeless) are more likely to experience discrimination in healthcare. In addition, many addictive disorders are co-occurring, resulting in the need for coordinated care. This course takes a holistic approach by considering multiple substance-based and behavioral expressions of addiction, with a particular focus on problem gambling. STAY TUNED for this new 3–6-hour course that aims to enhance addiction treatment for those minoritized by race/ethnicity, gender identity and sexual orientation, history of incarceration, and experiences of homelessness.
