The Pennsylvania Department of Drug and Alcohol Programs (DDAP) is accepting presentation proposals for its 2025 Emerging Drug Trends Symposium, which will be held Tuesday, November 18, 2025, at the Penn Harris Hotel & Convention Center, 1150 Camp Hill Bypass, Camp Hill, PA.

The one-day event will feature a combination of plenary presentations and breakout sessions aimed at providing a comprehensive overview of the current drug landscape. Participants will gain deeper insights into overdose trends and explore best practices for addressing emerging drug threats.

DDAP encourages breakout session presentations for intermediate to advanced professionals, and is seeking content that addresses the evolving needs of professionals at various career stages, focuses on common challenges, and highlights evidence-based strategies to overcome them and ultimately enhance outcomes.

The submission deadline for presentations is 11:59 pm on Tuesday, July 15, 2025. Submission guidelines and the breakout session proposal form are both available online. Email Margaret Eckles-Ray at DDAP with any questions.
