The Murray PHN first commissioned VAADA in 2019 to implement and oversee an Alcohol and Other Drugs Community of Practice (COP) to service the region. Since then, VAADA has worked with staff and services in the region to build workforce capacity and support building a skilled AOD workforce in the region. As part of the latest iteration of the project, VAADA hosts four regional forums and coordinates training opportunities. These will provide regional services with the opportunity to hear informative presentations, connect with AOD and allied services, share practice wisdom, and strengthen relationships.
