BC Alcohol and Other Drug Monitoring Project
A Research and Knowledge Transfer Hub of the BC Mental Health and Addictions Research Network
The BC Alcohol and Other Drug Monitoring Project collects and organizes multiple streams of data related to risky substance use and associated harms in BC.

Every dataset in the system is coordinated and managed by a team of researchers. The information is routinely updated based on substance-related research from a wide variety of mental health and addictions organizations.

This BC-based project is paving the way for developing a comprehensive national system that can be applied in various jurisdictions to collect and compare substance-related trends and harms across the country.

Through maps and other graphics, the project offers easy access to information on alcohol and other drugs as well as analyses of significant relationships related to substance use.
