Keynote Speaker
|
Dr Robb Kelly will kick off the conference by engaging the audience in a thought-provoking keynote that will address how the criminal justice system is ground zero for the war on drugs and alcoholism and how to leverage it to find meaningful solutions. He will also discuss the importance of changing the perception of addiction from a behavioural problem to that of a mental health concern with an emphasis on the role of trauma in addiction. He will introduce the latest research on brain mapping and changing neural pathways-neuroplasticity. Lastly, he will share his insights on alcohol dependence and how it’s not a drinking problem, it’s a thinking problem.

Youth & Family Focused Panel

This panel explores the family unit as a complex social system in which members interact to influence each other's behaviour and the patterns that emerge around addiction and criminalized behaviour. Other factors, such as experiences of racism and marginalization, as well as biological and psychosocial conditions, will be highlighted as they influence criminal behaviour among young people.

Panel
|
Community safety and well-being cannot rest solely on the shoulders of the police. It is a shared responsibility of all members of the community and requires an integrated approach to bring municipalities, First Nations and community partners together to address a collective goal. Breaking down existing silos and encouraging multi-sectoral partnerships are essential in developing strategies, programs and services to help minimize risk factors and improve the overall well-being of our communities. Presented by esteemed police representatives, this session will highlight key initiatives and successes of policing across North America.
