The TriOS Addiction Workers Program offered a one year experience that brought every attribute of the addictions field into perspective, from clinical aspects to social developments, and latest applications in working with this special population: My kind instructor consistently taught and imparted with a compassionate approach. This helped me to further develop the knowledge, understanding, and insight necessary to support clients through stages of change and recovery. I owe my gratitude, in the role of an employed addictions counsellor, to the servitude and dedication of TriOS staff. Thank you for coming along side of me; it is significant!
