What is ISSUP?

We are an international network that unites, connects and shares knowledge across the substance use workforce. We aim to make the work of our members as effective as possible through knowledge sharing, training and networking opportunities.

Who is ISSUP for?

ISSUP is for everyone who is doing something to address substance use in a variety of settings. This includes health and treatment professionals, prevention practitioners, market disruption and supply, law enforcement, policy makers, and community-led groups like youth and volunteers.
