CCSA’s Issues of Substance Conference is Heading to Halifax!

CCSA’s Issues of Substance is coming to the East Coast. Join us at the Halifax Convention Centre from November 17 to 19, 2025.

Join up to 1,000 expected attendees for three full days of learning. Individuals from coast to coast to coast will come together in Halifax to learn, share and discuss ways to improve outcomes for people in Canada living with substance use health and mental health issues.

The conference brings together a wide spectrum of perspectives, including those from substance use health workers, healthcare professionals, researchers, policy makers, knowledge brokers and people with lived and living experience with substance use. We strive to make our conference a place where everyone feels welcomed, comfortable, included and respected.

This event is intended for everyone to showcase their respective expertise and have their voices heard. Attendees will share and learn from each other as we work together to find solutions to substance use health challenges.

Over the coming months, before the release of the program, we will be posting important information about the conference, including:

• Details on the call for submissions (opening in November 2024),
• How to apply for a subsidy,
• Sponsorship information,
• Important conference dates,
