3 Voices Presents "What Does It Mean To Be Addicted?"

Marblehead, Massachusetts - 3 Voices continues its mission to empower women to use their voices on important issues by presenting three programs this spring focusing on addiction.

The first program will be held on Tuesday, March 19, at 7 p.m., at Abbot Library, 235 Pleasant Street in Marblehead, when Georgia Miller, PhD, and Ellen Terry, MHS, discuss “What does it mean to be addicted?”

Miller has taught an array of graduate and undergraduate counseling and psychology courses at institutions of higher learning and currently teaches at UMass-Lowell.

Terry has 30 years of experience as an addiction counselor in hospital out-patient clinician services and currently serves as a psychiatric triage clinician at Salem Hospital in the emergency center.

“The opioid crisis and addiction are issues that have touched just about everyone. But it’s something we’re not talking enough about,” said Betty Lautner, one of the 3 Voices founders. “We want to get that conversation going by presenting accurate terminology, information and important human insights.”

The program will be followed by questions and answers and an opportunity to continue the conversation with light desserts and beverages.

The next programs will be on Tuesday, April 23, and on Tuesday, June 4.

3 Voices programs are sponsored by Abbot Library and MHTV. All 3 Voices programs are free and open to the public. For more information about 3 Voices, visit 3Voices.org or contact 3voicesmhd@gmail.com.
