Alcohol consumption, harms, and treatment during the COVID-19 pandemic

This webinar is co-hosted by Evidence Exchange Network (EENet), within the Provincial Support Program at CAMH, and by the Canadian Centre on Substance Use and Addiction (CCSA).

Alcohol consumption, ensuing harms, and treatments for harmful alcohol use have all changed during the COVID-19 pandemic as a result of government-enforced shutdowns and policies to encourage social distancing. Join our panel of experts to learn about emerging research on these significant changes. Presentations will be followed by a Q&A period.
