Conference Overview
The Arizona Association of Drug Court Professionals (AADCP) is pleased to announce the Call for Presenters for the 2022: Treatment Court Conference to be held April 13-15, 2022, on a virtual platform. Our goal is to offer quality workshops that provide skill-building opportunities, increase professional competencies, and focus on implementing research into practice, while also encompassing the spirit of this year’s conference theme.
