A new graduate program at the IU School of Education will help fill the need for addictions counselors in the state of Indiana and beyond.
The M.S.Ed. in Mental Health Counseling and Counselor Education – Addictions Track has launched as part of the School of Education’s contribution to IU’s Grand Challenge, a multi-year response to the opioid crisis in Indiana. With funding from the Grand Challenge, Counseling and Educational Psychology faculty Ellen Vaughan and Mary Waldron developed the Addictions Track.
