We are proud to reflect on the success of the 2025 AATOD Conference, held in Philadelphia last October. We welcomed attendees from across the country and around the globe, with registration reaching as high as 1,400 participants. Once again, AATOD delivered the world’s premier training conference focused on the treatment of opioid use disorder.


We extend our sincere thanks to the Commonwealth of Pennsylvania and the City of Philadelphia for their outstanding support and hospitality. Special appreciation goes to Josh Nirella, who served as the 2025 Conference Chair, and whose leadership helped make this event such a success.


We are deeply grateful to everyone who contributed to producing a robust and meaningful conference program, including the AATOD Planning Committee, AATOD Board of Directors, sponsors, exhibitors, presenters, speakers, and volunteers. Most importantly, thank you to the attendees who made the journey to Philadelphia and supported AATOD—your engagement and dedication are what make this conference truly special.


In this final #aatod2025 conference e-blast, we are pleased to share post-conference resources with you, whether you attended in person or were unable to join us. These materials include a curated series of conference photo albums, recording order form, conference newsletter and award recipient listing, all of which capture the spirit of this year’s theme: The Evolving Field of Opioid Treatment.


Please scroll down for access to these resources and to relive the highlights of an exceptional conference.


With gratitude,

AATOD
