PROGRAM COMMITTEE

Special thanks are extended to this year’s program committee members who accepted the quest of creating a new and vibrant program focused on a wide variety of aspects of addiction. A combination of the ‘traditional’ tracks and new areas provided the framework for this year’s program development.  Within each area, committee members did not shy away from exploring and challenging current beliefs and practices to create a program pertinent for individuals working in all program and geographic areas.

Special thanks is extended to the following people for their time, talents, and expertise which went into the creation of this year’s exciting program.
