The best conference sessions don't end when the speaker walks off the stage. They're the ones that change what you do with your next patient. At the CSAM Annual Conference, the hands-on workshops are built for real-world practice.

Strengthen your motivational interviewing skills, explore MAT system integrative approaches, learn the newest direct-to-inject protocols, and leave with adolescent treatment strategies you can use the moment you're back in clinic.

You'll also hear the latest policy updates shaping addiction care in California, connect with colleagues during the poster session, celebrate leaders in the field, and earn full CME/CE. Join us October 21–24 at the Hyatt Regency Orange County and leave with practical tools you can put into practice on Monday morning.
