Our History

Launched in 2010, the East Coast Symposium (formerly known as the National Conference on Addiction Disorders) has grown into one of the premier events for professionals in the addiction treatment and behavioral health field. In 2021, the conference became a sister conference to both the West Coast Symposium and the Cape Cod Symposium. 

Now held in sunny Florida, the East Coast Symposium offers a dynamic and interactive learning experience designed for a diverse audience of clinicians, counselors, therapists, psychologists, physicians, psychiatrists, senior executives in treatment programs, and marketing and business development professionals.
