Abstract:
The addiction's problems are more and more frequent at the psychaitric's consultation. Alcoholism and drug-addiction are the two types of addictions most frequently found.The bases of addiction's therapy are the weaning of the product, and the consolidation of weaning or the avoidance of the relapses.the results remain however very heterogeneous and sometimes disappointing. the usual therapies seem little adapted to the dynamics of addictive pathology, and the rechuttes are increasingly frequent, in the same way the risk of replacement of a symptom by another is not excluded.Can hypnosis help certain people to release their addictions? Hypnosis allows the subject the reinvestment its senses, as well as a modification of its relationship with the outside world. the patient can thus, to fall under a dynamics of change permattant to him to start a process of opening and exceeded the stage or it was solidified and locked up with the toxic product.Few work were carried out in the field of the assumption of responsibility patients suffering from drug-addiction and addictions under hypnosis.The objectives of this work is to study, through the illustration of two clinical cases of our daily practice, the place of hypnosis to help patients suffering from addcitives pathologies.

Abstract:
AbstractBackground and aimsSocial determinants are closely related to addiction, both as a cause and a consequence of substance use and other addictive behaviors. The present paper examines prosocialness (i.e. the tendency to help, empathize, and care for others) among a population of young males. We compared prosocialness across different types of addiction and examined whether prosocialness varied according to the presence of multiple addictions.MethodsA sample of 5,675 young males, aged 19–29 years old (Mean = 21.4; Median = 21), completed a questionnaire that included screening tools to identify addictive behaviors with regards to alcohol, nicotine, cannabis, gambling, and gaming. The questionnaire also included a scale to measure prosocialness.ResultsCompared to a no-addiction control group, the subgroups of young men suffering from behavioral addictions (i.e., gambling and gaming) reported the lowest levels of prosocialness. Respondents with an alcohol addiction also showed lower prosocialness compared to no-addiction controls. By contrast, no significant differences in prosocialness were found between respondents with nicotine disorder or cannabis disorder and the no-addiction controls. Furthermore, the number of addictions had no clear, observable effects on prosocialness. Significant differences were found between the no-addiction control group and the groups reporting one or more addictions, but not between the separate groups reporting one, two, and three or more addictions.Discussion and conclusionsA better understanding of the social dimension affecting young males with addiction, particularly gambling and gaming addictions, may be useful for their prevention and treatment.

Abstract:
ABSTRACTObjectiveTaking into account the importance of act prevention on the development of addictions, we assessed the presence of multiple addictions in an adolescent high-school population, also assessing the prevalence of Internet abuse and the impact on disability.IntroductionAdolescence seems to be a critical period of addiction vulnerability, based on social but also neurobiological factors.The earlier onset of behavioral/substance dependence seems to predict greater addiction severity, morbidity, and multiple addictive disorders.MethodsData were collected from a sample of 275 students in Florence, Italy, high schools through surveys distributed in classes. The sample had an average age of 16.67±1.85 years (52.4% males, 47.6% females). To assess multiple addiction we used the 16 subscales of the Shorter PROMIS Questionnaire, to assess Internet addiction prevalence we used the Internet Addiction Scale, and to quantify disability symptoms, we used the Sheehan Disability Scale.ResultsCaffeine abuse, sex, relationship submissive, gambling, food starving, and food bingeing have raised highest scores. 5.4% of the students were found to be Internet addicted similar to other countries. Disability seemed strongly correlated to the subscale of alcohol, gambling, sex, tobacco, food starving and food bingeing, shopping, exercise, and Internet addiction. Gambling, sex, caffeine abuse, compulsive help dominant, work, Internet addiction, relationship dominant, and relationship submissive in this sample were strongly related to substance dependence.ConclusionLevel of concerns unexpected compared to the level reported in other countries for the behavioral compulsions, have been highlighted. Behavioral addictions are multiple, a source of disability, and they are related to substance abuse. It has yet to be clarified if they are a temporary phenomenon occurring in adolescents or if they are a stable trait, accounting as marker for the development of substance abuse.

AbstractRedish et al. provide a significant advance in our understanding of addiction by showing that the various addictive processes are in fact all decision-making processes and each may undergird addiction. We propose means for identifying more central addiction processes. This recognition of the complexity of addiction followed by identification of more central processes would help guide the development of prevention and treatment.

Abstract:
Genetic analysis of the association between alcohol, cocaine, and opiate addiction and variable number tandem repeat (VNTR) polymorphisms in monoamine oxidase B (MAOB) and serotonergic 5-hydroxytryptamine (serotonin) receptor 1B and 2C (HTR1B 21 and HTR2C) pathway genes was performed in a sample of 302 polyconsumers. Our genetic association analysis revealed a significant association between a 184 base pair (bp) VNTR polymorphism in the MAOB gene and addiction to cocaine and opiates. This work highlights new genetic marker associations in cocaine and opiate polyconsumer addictions. These data help to clarify and quantify the complex role of genetics in addictive disorders, as well as their future contribution to the prevention (genetic counselling), diagnosis (genetic diagnosis of vulnerability), and treatment (pharmacogenomics) of these disorders.

Abstract:
Buddhist-derived interventions have increasingly been employed in the treatment of a range of physical and psychological disorders, and in recent years, there has been significant growth in the use of mindfulness-based interventions (MBIs) for this purpose. Ontological Addiction Theory (OAT) is a novel metaphysical approach to understanding psychopathology within the framework of Buddhist teachings and asserts that many mental illnesses have their root in the widespread mistaken belief in an inherently existent self that operates independently of external phenomena. OAT describes how different types of MBI can help undermine these beliefs and allow a person to reconstruct their view of self and reality to address the root causes of suffering. As well as proving effective in treating many other psychological disorders, MBIs based on OAT have demonstrated efficacy in treating conventional behavioural addictions, such as problem gambling, workaholism, and sex addiction. The goal of this paper is to (i) discuss and appraise the evidence base underlying the use of MBIs for treating addiction; (ii) explicate how OAT advances understanding of the mechanisms of addiction; (iii) delineate how different types of MBI can be employed to address addictive behaviours; and (iv) propose future research avenues for assessing and comparing MBIs in the treatment of addiction.

Abstract:
Background: Disturbances in gain and loss processing have been extensively reported in adults with addiction, a brain disorder characterized by obsession with addictive substances or behaviours. Previous studies have provided conflicting results with respect to neural abnormalities in gain processing in addiction, and few investigations into loss processing. Methods: We conducted voxel-wise metaanalyses of abnormal task-evoked regional activities in adults with substance dependence and gambling addiction during the processing of gains and losses not related to their addiction (mainly monetary). We identified 24 studies, including 465 participants with substance dependence, 81 with gambling addiction and 490 healthy controls. Results: Compared with healthy controls, all participants with addictions showed hypoactivations in the prefrontal cortex, striatum and insula and hyperactivations in the default mode network during gain anticipation; hyperactivations in the prefrontal cortex and both hyper- and hypoactivations in the striatum during loss anticipation; and hyperactivations in the occipital lobe during gain outcome. In the substance dependence subgroup, activity in the occipital lobe was increased during gain anticipation but decreased during loss anticipation. Limitations: We were unable to conduct meta-analyses in the gambling addiction subgroup because of a limited data set. We did not investigate the effects of clinical variables because of limited information. Conclusion: The current study identified altered brain activity associated with higher- and lower-level function during gain and loss processing for non-addiction (mainly monetary) stimuli in adults with substance dependence and gambling addiction. Adults with addiction were more sensitive to anticipatory gains than losses at higher- and lower-level brain areas. These results may help us to better understand the pathology of gain and loss processing in addiction.

Abstract:
The vast majority of smokers who manage to quit do so without the assistance of a facilitated cessation program. Since the majority of focused anti-smoking efforts are directed at facilitated programs, there is an apparent gap in service of the population at risk. Also, the sharp decline in smoking prevalence indicates a changing demographic dynamic. It is probable that those persons still smoking comprise a different population type than did smokers of a decade ago. A reexamination of major strategies for self-quitting is strongly indicated.The purpose of this thesis was to apply what was known about addictive behavior to a self-guided quitting process. Major variables guiding this effort were learning theory, theory of self-change, empirically demonstrated methods of cessation, and psychosocial effects on lifestyle change.The knowledge gained during the process was incorporated into a menu approach that emphasized personal responsibility for the quitting process and allows for choices that serve to tailor the program to the individual's needs. The end result was a quitters' guide, desktop published and prepared in a small quantity for pilot purposes. This guide was evaluated by persons with particular expertise in addictive behavior, especially smoking cessation. An ammended product was then presented to smokers and/or former smokers for further feedback. A journal of the process that detailed both difficulties and successes was also included.

Abstract:
Abstract Views of addiction etiology predict religious individuals’ willingness to help. Emily Brady, Valerie Hoots, Joseph Barnet, and Andrea Clements, Department of Psychology, East Tennessee State University. Addiction to drugs and alcohol is an accrescent societal problem. Individuals with substance addiction face stigma in their daily lives, specifically from religious individuals as explored in this study. The stigma these religious individuals might portray could be related to their ideas on addiction etiology. The purpose of this project is to evaluate if different views of addiction etiology predict religious individuals’ willingness to help individuals with substance addition. Our hypothesis for this sample consists of two parts. (1) Religious individuals who hold the belief of a moral etiology of addiction will be less willing to help individuals with substance addiction. (2) Religious individuals who hold the ideology of a physical etiology of addiction will be less willing to help individuals with substance addiction. A survey, which contained the Addiction Attitudes and Beliefs Scale (AABS) and the Tobacco, Alcohol, Prescription medication, and other Substance use Tool (TAPS), was administered to a sample of 215 individuals recruited through social media advertising via Facebook and Reddit platforms, email, and East Tennessee State University’s SONA research portal. Results showed significance in beliefs of moral etiology and willingness to help across religious individuals. One limitation for this project is a lack of generalizability due to the majority of participants being female (73.6%) and white (92.1%). Another limitation is that the measure is based on self-report, and given the sensitivity on the topic, individuals may not be willing to report accurately.

"Verslawingsparadigmas en die Implikasies vir Hulpverlening - 'n Pastorale Studie" is a doctoral dissertation which looks at different addiction paradigms and how each of these paradigms have implications for the type of care that will be given to people with addictions. The study was done in line with classical Reformed theology. Biblical perspectives were formulated as. a measuring tool for judging addiction paradigms and methods of caring for people with additions. A few texts on drunkenness in the Bible were researched exegetically and according to the revelation history. Literature study as well as a study of Scriptures were done on Biblical and non-Biblical addiction paradigms and methods of care. The information gathered in previous chapters, the literature study as well as the study of Scriptures were consolidated to develop a method of care to ensure that people with addictions and their loved ones are helped in a profound, Scripture-based way.

Full text
Abstract:
Research had two aims: firstly, to explore the clinical observation that dependent drug users are often apparently unwilling, or are unable to reflect in any depth on experience, including thinking about mental states in self and other. Secondly, to consider the intrapsychic elements that exist alongside, and which may motivate drug addiction (including heavy and dependent alcohol use). 34 drug users were interviewed using the Adult Attachment Interview, and interviews coded for Reflective Function (RF), an objective measure of the capacity to mentalize. Low RF was identified across the sample. Data from Adult Attachment Interviews also revealed that a climate of violence and/or cruelty, deprivation and a lack of basic care nearly always precede chronic drug or alcohol addiction. I suggest that as a result of this the individuals interviewed had minimised thinking about their own & others’ states of mind. Ten of the sample were then interviewed twice more using a research interview based on the clinical psychotherapeutic interview, which explored internal dynamics and object relational aspects of participants’ narratives. The data obtained revealed the presence of two kinds of internal object relating in a very specific way. A cruel, bullying, depriving object was found to dominate, and to severely restrict access to, a much weaker, though potentially helpful internal object. There was an over-reliance on the dominant bad object which was felt at one time to have saved the addict from unbearable psychic pain, but had then demanded he turn forever away from human help, denying the need for this or indeed any vulnerability or ‘weakness’. Whilst intoxication was initially found both to help the addict sustain this position, and to obliterate psychic pain, ongoing addiction actually cemented the dynamic described, and further inhibited access to helpful, human objects.

Full text
Abstract:
The aim of this dissertation was to investigate the feasibility of developing, delivering and outcome of the internet delivery of evidence based manualized intervention, for family members. Family members are often the ones to start feeling the negative effects of a loved one’s misuse of alcohol of drugs and service delivery though expanding to recognise the needs of family members, is not yet fully addressing these needs. The 5-Step Method which was developed based on the Stress-Strain- Coping-Support Model offers a way to work directly with family members in addressing their needs. There is evidence available suggests that when the 5-Step Method is delivered in other formats, in a variety of settings, by various health care professionals; that it does lead to positive changes for the family member. The challenge of the 5-Step Method therefore was to make it more widely available. The internet offers an option through which this intervention may be made available to family members. Results of the internet delivery of this intervention show that family members found it acceptable, easy to use, and helpful. It did lead to changes in the way family members cope, as well as reductions in the impact and symptoms. These results suggest that the internet is a viable medium for the delivery of this intervention for family members. The implications of these findings are further discussed with suggestions for future research.

Abstract:
Exaggerated gaming is a rising issue both in Sweden and internationally that has a negative effect on many lives. It can be a cause of isolation which leads to various social consequences. It can cause economic problems due to large amounts of money being spent on games or in-game purchases or because of prioritizing gaming before going to work or studying. Excessive gaming has been categorized as a disorder/addiction since mid-2018 by the World Health Organisation based on reviews done on the available evidence and consensus among experts from different disciplines. However, there are not a lot of studies regarding the kind of help that is available as well as how likely those that have gaming disorder seek help nor are there many studies about stigma around the phenomenon. The aim of our study was to investigate if perceived stigma has any effect on whether or not and to what extent people who have problematic gaming habits decide to seek help as well as where they turn, should they have gaming disorder. We also want to see if problematic gaming habits increase the level of perceived stigma. Our hypotheses were therefore the following: H1: the more someone’s gaming habits are close to those of someone with a gaming disorder, the higher the perceived stigma becomes around the phenomenon. H2: the greater the perceived stigma is, the less likely a person is to seek help for their problem H3: the greater the perceived stigma, the less likely a person is to turn to professionals for help. We constructed a survey and distributed it on forums that discuss gaming related issues hoping to reach as many gamers as possible and we got a total of 177 responses. After having done the analysis in SPSS, our result showed that there was a weak positive correlation between problematic gaming habits and perceived stigma. We also found that the level of perceived stigma did not influence whether they would seek help or not. When it came to seeking help from professionals, we found statistically significant data relating to stigma and seeking professional help in that the higher the perceived stigma was, the more likely the individual was to seek professional help.

Full text
Abstract:
Patients seeking help for hypersexual behavior often exhibit features of impulsivity, cognitive rigidity, poor judgment, deficits in emotion regulation, and excessive preoccupation with sex. Some of these characteristics are also common among patients presenting with neurological pathology associated with executive dysfunction. These observations led to the current investigation in which differences across scores on objective neuropsychological tests of executive functioning were explored in a group of hypersexual male patients (n = 30) compared with a non-hypersexual community sample (n = 30) of men. Using multivariate statistics, differences between the groups were examined yielding significant differences on measures of hypersexuality. However, the groups failed to exhibit significant differences across neuropsychological tests of executive functioning. These results contradict a previous finding of executive deficits among hypersexual men measured by self-report. These findings are discussed as they pertain to conceptualizations of hypersexual populations and possible implications for future research.

Abstract:
Syftet med studien var att utifrån socialarbetares och kvinnors perspektiv belysa socialtjänstens arbete med hjälp och stöd till våldsutsatta kvinnor med missbruk. I uppsatsen har en kvalitativ metod använts för att genomföra fem intervjuer. Tre av respondenterna var socialarbetare och två respondenter var kvinnor med tidigare erfarenheter av våld och missbruk. Två teoretiska perspektiv, socialkonstruktivistisk utgångspunkt och feministisk teori, har använts för att tolka och analysera resultatet från intervjuerna. I resultatet framkommer att det är av stor vikt att synliggöra denna särskilt utsatta grupp och deras behov. Resultatet visar att socialarbetare upplever att det inte finns tillräcklig kunskap eller hjälp i form av strategier för att hjälpa dessa kvinnor. Det framkommer åsikter från kvinnorna att de upplevt bristfälligt stöd och bemötande från myndigheter samt omgivning. Det stöd som i dagsläget ges till dessa kvinnor har fokus på missbruk och saknar prioritet av våldsutsatthet och betonar individinriktat eget ansvar för situationen.
The purpose of this study was to, based on the social workers and women's perspective illustrate the work of the social service in state of help and support for the addicted women who have experienced violence. A qualitative method has been used to achieve five interviews and therefore the purpose of this study. Three of the respondents were social workers and two respondents were women who previous experienced violence and addiction. Two theoretical approaches have been used to interpret and analyze the results from the interviews, social construction and feministic theory. The results of the study show that it is crucial to create awareness to this particularly vulnerable group and their needs. The results also show that the social workers feel there is a lack of knowledge or help in form of strategies to help these women. It emerges opinions from the women’s perspective that show that they’ve experienced inadequate support and treatment by authorities and other people. The support as in the current situation is given to the women with focus on the addiction and with lack of priority for the experience of violence and it emphasizes individualized responsibility for the situation.

Abstract:
The article is devoted to the problem of dependent behavior. Today, a large number of people are moving away from the difficulties of real life, starting to use various substances, becoming dependent on them. Normal human behavior tends to be dependent on their knowledge, skills, experience. Deviant behavior is associated with a person's departure from reality. Such behavior, according to psychologists, is considered addictive. With the help of the use of certain substances that change the mental state, the addict tries to evade responsibility, hide the inability to communicate, and be free in choosing an individual development path. The birth of addiction occurs in early childhood, when the correct communication of the mother by the child is disrupted. Dependent people are unfortunate orphans who cannot find a "good mother" all their lives.

Abstract:
According to recent statistics, 75.4% of people with access to the internet are addicted to their phones. 78 percent of teenagers check their mobile devices at least hourly [2]. The purpose of this paper is to propose a tool that lowers users’ dependence on their electronic devices. The tool named Phone Cage is created with the aim of locking electronic device for a set period of time. The application involves the user setting a specific mobile application for a specified amount of time. The phone cage provides the user a display countdown of the remaining time frame through which the locked application is inaccessible. The app provides access only when the set timer reaches the zero mark. This tool is created using Tinker cad, 3D- printer, Thunkable, Firebase console, and Raspberry Pi Zero. This will act as perfect remedy for individuals with addiction to their phones. It will also be a way for parents to control their children’s use of mobile phones. Therefore, noting that a significant number of people lack selfcontrol when it comes to cell phone usage, the cage will be of great help. The project will therefore have great impact to the community by allowing families to spend more time together and not on their phones. It will also help adults place more focus on their jobs and not on their phones.

Abstract:
Context: Reversible cerebral vasoconstriction syndrome (RCVS) is characterized by reversible narrowing of brain vessels. It affects young adults, predominantly female, with acute and self-limited course, initiated with “Thunderclap” headaches associated or not with neurological symptoms, such as seizures and focal deficits. Pathophysiology is the dysfunction in the control of the sympathetic autonomic nervous system through a multifactorial mechanism with a strong association with hormones, immunological, biochemical and other predisposing factors, including drug addiction, with emphasis on marijuana, ether and chloroform. Case report: A 19-year-old female started with an insidious acute clinical condition of severe holocranial headache after using marijuana and “loló” (chloroform and ether narcotic), evolved with behavioral and level of consciousness alterations, admitted in status epilepticus, being orotracheal intubation (OTI) is required. No comorbidities. Neurological examination: OTI and sedated, at RASS-2, slowed trunk reflexes and global weakness (Grade 3). Skull tomography: Hyperdense foci in splenium of the corpus callosum and cingulate gyrus. Cerebral angiography: mild to moderate cerebral vasospasm evident in the P1 and P2 segments of the posterior cerebral arteries, suggestive of RCVS. Conclusion:The diagnosis is clinical and radiological, with cerebral angiography being the gold standard. Vascular involvement such as intraparenchymal hemorrhage, non-aneurysmatic subarachnoid hemorrhage and cerebral infarction are common. Toxicological tests help in the investigation, and the exclusion of the precipitating cause is important, in addition to drug therapy that prevents recurrence of vasospasm. The improvement can occur in up to three months, in our case the evolution with neurological improvement was evident after one month.

Abstract:
Self-stigmatization is a barrier to accessing psychological services by people with various psycho emotional problems. The present study aimed to apply the Scale on Self-Stigma Related to the Request for Psychological Help on a group of adolescents (N = 1302, M = .46, SD = .49), aged between 12 and 18 years, with addictive behaviors. The results show that: boys have a higher level of self-stigma than girls; with age, self-stigma does not decrease; addictive behaviors correlate positively with the perception of the negative affect of self-esteem following the request for psychological help and negatively with the positive influence on self-esteem

Abstract:
Mental health is a state of an individual’s emotional and psychological wellbeing (Mental health basics,2018). People with mental illness. // Unresolved mental health problems can to a great extent affect the social, emotional, physical and educational development of teens and young adults, which in turn can have an enormous long-term negative effect on their adult life. (Fraser et al 2007). Studies [ show that young people that have positive mental health are much less likely to exhibit risk-taking behaviors such as addiction and even suicide (Reynold et al., 2013). According to the W.H.O. (2019),1 in 5 of the world's children and adolescents have a mental disorder with About 50% of mental health issues beginning before the age of 14. // Studies in Nigeria reveal that there is an existing high level of ignorance about mental illness with people tending to exhibit negative attitudes towards people who identify as having mental health illness. Also, the Rates of mental health workers vary from below 2 per 100,000 populations in low-income countries like Nigeria to 70 per 100,000 in high-income countries. // Presently openly discussing mental health issues is seen as a taboo in a Nigerian setting and people are scared of being stigmatized or labelled as being mad as madness is abhorred as a sign of a cursed bloodline. Research shows that 1/5th of suicide cases in Nigeria are of people aged 13-19, between January- June 2019,30% of suicide committed in Nigeria were students between the ages of 15-29 (Daily Trust,2019). These are worrying figures showing that young people are not able to access the help they need. // This project safe space project is an open-access web-based innovative inclusive system that makes mental health care accessible to teens and young adults in Nigeria who would have been excluded from accessing necessary education /information because they would be unable to afford to see mental health personnel or are so afraid of being stigmatized. In the website is contained age-appropriate carefully curated OER in the form of informative and easy to understand write-up on the different mental disorders, explainer videos, inspirational stories and a provision of a safe online hub connecting people sharing the same diagnosis. Here users can anonymously share their feelings with an understanding and supportive group. This presentation will be centered on the import of this particular project and giving a walkthrough of the project to demonstrate its design features and functionality.

Abstract:
The objective of this study was to track trends in the signs of higher-quality addiction treatment as defined by the National Institute on Drug Abuse, the National Institute on Alcohol Abuse and Addiction, and the Substance Abuse and Mental Health Services Administration. We analyzed the National Survey of Substance Abuse Treatment Services from 2007 through 2017 to determine the percent of facilities having the characteristics of higher quality. We analyzed the percent by state and over time. • We found improvements between 2007 and 2017 on most measures, but performance on several measures remained low. • Most programs reported providing evidence-based behavioral therapies. • Half or fewer facilities offered medications for opioid use disorder; mental health assessments; testing for hepatitis C, HIV, and sexually transmitted diseases; self-help groups; employment assistance; and transportation assistance. • There was significant state-level variation across the measures.

Abstract:
Gambling-related harms are a significant public health issue in Great Britain. These harms are often underrecognized and most people who experience harms go without support. Under the leadership of Addiction recovery Agency (Ara) and Beacon Counselling Trust (BCT), the Bet You Can Help (BYCH) programme is filling the need for place-based education and training to identify and address gambling related harms. The BYCH programme is a community first aid model for safer gambling that promotes the early identification of people who are at risk of gambling related harms. Offered as a Level 2 Qualification through the Royal Society of Public Health, this programme aims to reduce harms and prevent lives being lost from gambling related harms in Great Britain. This theory of change considers the inputs, activities, outputs, and outcomes necessary to achieve these goals. It can be used by organizations, groups, and individuals in any sector impacted by gambling related harms in Great Britain.

Theory of change: The Safer Gambling Movement. Addiction Recovery Agency, Beacon Counselling Trust, January 2021. http://dx.doi.org/10.33684/2021.001.

Full text
Abstract:
Addiction Recovery Agency (Ara) and Beacon Counseling Trust (BCT) provide critical safer gambling education and treatment services for the West of England, North West England, and Wales. Their respective dedication to the safer gambling field and commitment to enhancing system integration led to a natural partnership between the two organisations. Drawing from Ara and BCT’s significant expertise, they partnered to develop a suite of safer gambling programmes. As the suite of innovative programmes grew, they recognised a need to articulate and share their leadership in transforming the safer gambling landscape in England and Wales. The Safer Gambling Movement describes Ara and Beacon’s leadership in developing a grassroots movement to build momentum for a national public health approach in Great Britain by first building this capacity in England and Wales. GREO was brought on as the evaluation partner to help create a theory of change to describe this work and lay the foundation for future evaluations.
