The Canadian Centre on Substance Use and Addiction

The Canadian Centre on Substance Use and Addiction was created by Parliament to provide national leadership to address substance use in Canada. A trusted counsel, we provide national guidance to decision makers by harnessing the power of research, curating knowledge and bringing together diverse perspectives.

• Our Vision: a healthier Canadian society where evidence transforms approaches to substance use.
• Our Mission: to address issues of substance use in Canada by providing national leadership and harnessing the power of evidence to generate coordinated action.

Together with our partners, we are working to improve the health and safety of Canadians. We will achieve this goal by nurturing a knowledge exchange environment where research guides policy and evidence-informed actions enhance effectiveness in the field.
