Training sessions have been planned for first responders to provide tools and resources designed to help them better respond to people with substance use concerns.
All attendees will be paid $75 for completing the four-hour training. The payments will apply for attendees who complete the registration survey, pre-test, and post-test.
Trainings will be held from 9 a.m. to 1 p.m. and 6 to 10 p.m. this Tuesday and from 6 to 10 p.m. Tuesday, Feb. 8, at the Seneca fire hall on Route 257.
