The 2027 American Association for the Treatment of Opioid Dependence (AATOD) Conference will take place from 18 to 20 April 2027 in Savannah, Georgia, under the theme “Navigating the Waves of Opioid Use Disorder.”

The conference will bring together addiction treatment professionals, healthcare providers, researchers, policymakers, peer recovery specialists and other stakeholders to explore evidence-based approaches to opioid use disorder treatment and recovery.

The programme will address emerging trends in the opioid epidemic, developments in treatment policies and regulations, medication-assisted treatment (MAT), peer support, and innovative approaches to improving treatment access and patient outcomes.

Through plenary sessions, workshops and discussions, the conference aims to strengthen collaboration across healthcare, criminal justice and social service systems, promote the integration of effective treatment approaches and support the development of comprehensive responses to opioid use disorder.
