International Family Drug Support Day 2026 - Canberra ACT
Aims to reduce stigma & discrimination regarding problematic drug use in families & raise importance of families in drug policy discussions.
Events are being held around the country to mark International Family Drug Support Day in February 2026.
International Family Drug Support Day first started in 2016 to draw attention to the importance of families affected by alcohol and/or drugs, including the benefits of supporting families. When families are given education, awareness and tips on coping and keeping safe, the outcome for everyone is improved.

The theme for the 2026 event is 'See the Person Not the Drug'
Please join us to hear from leaders in the AOD and harm reduction space.
