A word from the Executive Director
Welcome to the website of the Addiction Prevention Centre (APC).
It is with great pleasure that I recently joined the APC’s team (notice of appointment). The APC mission is to promote the fight against addictions that affect the well-being of the populations such as alcohol, illicit drugs, medications, tobacco, gambling and computer addiction, by focusing on sensitizing organizations and the population.

The Addiction Prevention Centre launches the APT program
Following three years of research and preparatory work, the Addiction Prevention Centre is launching its long-awaited addiction prevention program for youth aged 12 to 18.
You can now learn more about the program. Among other features, this new section allows you to view a multimedia module outlining the program. It also contains the scientific report, a press digest, documentation and technical details on the program.
The APT program is evidence-based and has been evaluated by youth participants. It aims to convey harmonized messages about alcohol, cannabis and other drugs, mainly by acting on young people’s beliefs.
