BCCEWH-Coalescing Virtual Community

The Coalescing on Women and Substance Use: Linking Research Practice and Policy project promotes online "virtual" discussions on six key topics related to women's substance use in Canada. Its aim is to build consensus on approaches to improving Canadian services, research and policy in these areas. Six online learning communities have been created, involving participants from across Canada, who work as researchers, service providers, policy developers, health system planners, and community advocates.

The project is sponsored by the British Columbia Centre of Excellence for Women's Health (BCCEWH) in partnership with the Canadian Women's Health Network and the Canadian Centre on Substance Abuse. The project is funded under Health Canada's Canada Drug Strategy Community Initiatives Fund.
