Call for Proposals: Peer Support Strong Conference (submit by Dec. 1)
PeerWorks and Lived Experience & Recovery Network (LERN) are back for the fourth year with our Annual Peer Support Strong Conference! We are holding the conference virtually on February 6th, 2024. This year's theme: Peer Support Revolution: What's Next?
This session aims to bring together a panel of speakers to showcase projects, resources, and tools centered around engaging youth and young people who use cannabis and other drugs.
CPHA’s Normalizing Conversations project launched a survey in 2021 to learn how Canadian public health, public safety, and health and social service professionals define and implement a public health approach to substance use. The survey findings provide an understanding of key stakeholder beliefs, attitudes, knowledge levels, and access to information about substance use.
