Different from other substance abuse training programs, Loyola’s AATP will educate students from a clinical social work perspective, employing an ecological, person-in-environment approach. Lynn Boyle, who is the sponsoring faculty member on AATP, says she’s thrilled for this new program. “Alcohol and other drug disorders cause or worsen problems for nearly 20 percent of social work consumers, and most social workers receive limited training in identifying and treating alcohol and other drug problems, which is why this pro- gram is so vital,” comments Boyle. » LUC.edu/socialwork/cadc

The session highlighted Loyola’s Community and Global Stew- ards Fellowship program, a program that challenges students to engage social issues and concerns and embrace a scholarship of engagement that connects our intellectual resources to the pressing social, civic, and ethical problems in our communities. Over the last two years, the Graduate School has awarded more than 40 Community and Global Steward Fellowships. Fellows drew from departments across the Loyola community, including criminal justice, history, nursing, biology, and psychology. In organizations as diverse as the Juvenile Probation and Court Services, Global Medical Brigade, McCormick Freedom Museum, the Frank Lloyd Wright Preservation Trust, and World Vision, fellows have worked to preserve history for fu- ture generations and interpret it to current audiences, assist troubled youth and their families, and advocate for humanitarian work across the globe. » LUC.edu/gradschool
