2025 Substance Misuse Summit

The 2025 Substance Misuse Summit featured an incredible slate of speakers, headlined by keynote speaker Dr. Ben Carson, who served as the 17th United States Secretary of Housing and Urban Development from 2017 to 2021. Joining Dr. Carson were State Health Officer Dr. Scott Harris, Alabama Department of Mental Health Commissioner Kim Boswell, and many other notable speakers. The Alabama Department of Public Health joined the Auburn University Harrison College of Pharmacy's Center for Opioid Research, Education, and Outreach, and the University of South Alabama Office of CME to host the event.
