Starting in 2021, IDAA invited professionals dedicated to issues of healthcare professionals’ wellbeing, including the treatment, and monitoring of substance use disorders, to sponsor and exhibit at our annual conference. This was a wonderful opportunity for IDAA to increase awareness and understanding of our organization’s mission and goals. We look forward to offering this to professional providers and organizations wishing to exhibit or sponsor at our Annual Conference in Orlando.
