Brief Intervention Facilitation: Enhancing Skills and Increasing Efficacy

WEBINAR SERIES:UNPACKING THE SBIRT MODEL IN SUBSTANCE USE PREVENTION
This three-session virtual series is designed to provide additional support to increase the provider’s capacity to deliver SBIRT in practice. Each session will take a closer look at
a core component of the SBIRT model to help providers build on what was
already learned and feel confident that they can integrate the concepts and skills sets of SBIRT in their prevention services.

Session 3:
The Brief Intervention (BI) component of SBIRT (screening, brief intervention, and referral to treatment) uses core communication skills to incite a person’s motivation to address and reduce unhealthy levels of substance use or other at-risk behavior. Using basic Motivational Interviewing (MI) communication strategies, this workshop will review dynamics of person-centered interactions and include practice activities to enhance provider skills to effectively facilitate the brief intervention “conversation” and support behavior change.
