NAATP's 40th Anniversary: Reflections on Addiction Treatment and Ethical Practices

Our job with medication-assisted treatment is to figure out how to fit it in the parlance of a program that many of us are quite fond of. But here's what I want to say about opioids. We don't know that addiction has increased. You know what recovery requires: transformation of a human being.
Imagine gathering with passionate advocates and professionals dedicated to transforming lives through addiction treatment. That's exactly what happened at the Omni Interlocken Resort in Denver, Colorado, for the 40th anniversary of the National Association of Addiction Treatment Providers (NAATP). This milestone event featured a powerful address by Executive Director Marvin Ventrell, who took the stage to discuss the state of the addiction treatment field and the organization itself.
His speech delved into the pressing need for ethical behavior and the implementation of the Quality Assurance Initiative in treatment practices. Ventrell didn't shy away from tough topics, including the complexities of incorporating medication-assisted treatment into recovery programs. He emphasized that true recovery is about transforming lives, not just managing symptoms. Attendees included dedicated volunteers, board members, and supporters who share a commitment to ethical standards and quality care in addiction treatment.
This episode is a testament to NAATP's unwavering dedication to promoting integrity and excellence in the field. If you're looking for inspiration and insight into the future of addiction treatment, this episode is a must-listen.
