harm

Initial research points to a shift in people’s use of drugs and alcohol during the COVID-19 pandemic.

Now more than ever, young people and schools need access to evidence based resources promoting healthy habits and preventing problematic drug and alcohol use from an early age.

The vision of the Medical Council on Alcohol (MCA) is to have a health workforce educated to reduce health harm from alcohol. In this symposium, the MCA will focus on the ways in which health professionals from different disciplines, sectors and specialties can act to reduce these harms.
