CALL FOR PRESENTATIONS
Submission Deadline Date: October 19, 2012
 
CADCA is requesting workshop proposals addressing the latest findings, cutting-edge program successes, lessons learned or problems solved. Effective coalitions employ practices that are evidence-based and results-driven.  At the forefront of this movement, CADCA and its coalitions are making positive systematic progress; learning from theory about what works, implementing those practices in a comprehensive manner, and achieving resolution to local substance abuse problems. CADCA coalitions represent people and passion. CADCA coalitions demonstrate an understanding of science, implement effective strategies, and are moving forward with real solutions.
