Planning is underway for the 2012 Annual International Women’s and Children’s Health and Gender Working Group (InWomen’s) conference held in conjunction with the NIDA International Forum and the CPDD Annual Scientific Meeting.

Last year, the 2011 conference held a plenary, several talks, poetry reading, storytelling, and seven discussion tables; reports are available in the NIDA International Virtual Collaboratory (NIVC) InWomen 2011 Satellite Meeting Conference folder. The InWomen special issue of Substance Use and Rehabilitation from the 2011 conference also will be available at the 2012 conference. The 2012 InWomen meeting will start at 11 a.m. (1 hour earlier than in previous years) with a networking session, followed by a plenary, several speakers, discussion tables, and performances of poetry and dance.

Any questions about the meeting can be sent to InWomen Chair Wendee Wechsberg, Ph.D., at wmw@rti.org.
