The Research & Education Department is the information arm of our organization. Long-term communications materials are produced through this department.

This department is a central part of our organization. Members in this department help us to research the latest reports, studies and information on issues pertaining to our cause.

External Education:
This department produces a variety of materials to be distributed to treatment professionals, organizations and associations, in the form of:

• Books
• Cassette tapes/audio CD's
• Pamphlets
• White papers [2 per year]

Internal Education:
This department develops our "Knowledge Curriculum," which is presented in the form of online seminars that members may participate in, and includes a packet of study materials. Members completing these seminars will be tested with an exam to determine knowledge level (I - III) and will acquire certification in that area, depending on knowledge level.

Also a mentoring program is in place to assist our members acquire or brush upon necessary skills. When each member feels a sense of participation and personal growth, we ALL benefit.

If you have educational, organizational, research, publishing, typesetting, graphic design, report-writing, and good people skills please consider joining this Department. Our members and Directors will assist you in any necessary to complete tasks.
