Item Doctoral Capstone Experiential at Camp Mariposa: Aaron’s Place(2021-04) Huber, Megan H.; Wilburn, Victoria G.; Department of Occupational Therapy, School of Health and Human Sciences; Wilburn, Victoria G.Dependence on alcohol, illicit substances, and opioids impact the parent-child relationship, childhood development, and child behaviors (Romanowicz et al., 2019). There is a strong association between parental substance abuse and subsequent child maltreatment (Opioids and Youth, 2018). Substance use disorder (SUD) can lead to family trauma and significantly impact the child’s life trajectory. However, given the support, knowledge, and tools necessary to intervene, it is possible to mitigate the negative effects of SUD and trauma. Camp Mariposa: Aaron’s Place is a camp for youth ages 9-12 who have been impacted by a family member’s SUD. By applying underutilized approaches to family and group therapy, such as yoga, theatre, and nature-based crafts, this camp promotes resiliency, protective factors, and post-traumatic growth.Item Drug Use in Indiana: A Regional Perspective(The Center for Health Policy, 2019-05-01) Gutta, Jyosna; Greene, MarionIndiana consists of 92 counties, which can be divided into 8 service regions. The prevalence of substance misuse can differ between the individual regions. Compared to the state’s average, rates of underage drinking, smoking, and illicit drug use were particularly high in Indiana’s Western region. The most frequently used substances among Indiana students in grades 8, 10, and 12 were alcohol, electronic vape products, marijuana, traditional (combustible) cigarettes, and prescription drugs. Understanding each region’s unique needs is a vital component to designing programs dedicated to improving overall Hoosier health.
