SUMMARY:Understanding Section 35: Involuntary Commitment for Substance Use Disorders
DESCRIPTION:Please join us on Wednesday\, June 25\, 2025\, from 3 PM to 4 PM for “Understanding Section 35: Involuntary Commitment for Substance Use Disorders”\, featuring Aidan Novo\, Program Director\, with Jessica Hughes\, Recovery Specialist Supervisor\, of Behavioral Health Network (BHN). Section 35 permits courts in Massachusetts to involuntarily commit individuals with an alcohol or substance use disorder to an inpatient treatment facility when their substance use presents a serious risk of harm to themselves or others. \nIn this session\, you will learn: \n*How the Section 35 process works \n*Who does and does not qualify \n*What resources and alternatives are available for families \n*What happens when a person is committed\, and after they complete the program \n*Whether this type of intervention may be appropriate for someone you care about \nThis event will provide clear\, practical information and supportive guidance for families navigating the challenges of substance use and treatment options. \nQuestions? Please get in touch with Nicole St. Hilaire\, Outreach Manager\, for CONNECT at nicole@opioidtaskforce.org. \nThis is part of the CONNECT 2024 – 2025 Education & Training Series. (CONNECT is a post-opioid overdose and community outreach effort sponsored by the Opioid Task Force of Franklin County and the North Quabbin Region in collaboration with its partners.)
