5th Annual BC Substance Use Conference

Registration is now open for the 5th annual BC Substance Use Conference.

This year’s conference will be held April 20–22, 2023. To enable provincial-wide participation, we will be hosting a blended conference this year, with both virtual and in-person options for attendance. The in-person program will be held at the JW Marriott Parq Vancouver.  

Conference dates and times:

  • Thursday, April 20 from 5:30pm – 9:00pm
  • Friday, April 21 from 9:00am – 4:30pm
  • Saturday, April 22 from 9:00am – 2:15pm

The conference theme this year is The Challenge of Change. We hope this theme will empower conference attendees to better understand and adapt to the rapidly changing landscape within which we live and work.
