Much like ATTCs, ITTCs are based in universities and research
centers, and they utilize a variety of strategies to accelerate the
implementation of scientifically-based and culturally appropriate practices.
ITTCs currently exist in South Africa, Ukraine and Vietnam, with more countries
being added in the near future. These Centers are brought together in a
coordinated network through the leadership of the ITTC Network Coordinating
Office in partnership with the International
Consortium of Universities on Drug Demand Reduction (ICUDDR).
An exciting and informative virtual event to officially launch the
ITTC Network is scheduled for 8 a.m. CST, Feb. 24, 2021. All are welcome to attend
and learn more about the ITTC model of technology transfer, hear about the
experiences of the existing ITTCs, and meet the network’s leaders and key
stakeholders.
The ITTC virtual launch event will be held in English with
simultaneous translation into Spanish. To find out

Renowned implementation science expert Dean Fixsen, PhD, will serve as the
keynote speaker for the virtual launch event.
The National Rehabilitation Centre (NRC) in Abu Dhabi is hosting this virtual
event. The future home of United Arab Emirates ITTC, the NRC is already a
leader in promoting the adoption and implementation of science-based
prevention, treatment and recovery services in the UAE and throughout other
parts of the Middle East. ICUDDR and the existing ITTCs are honored to include
NRC in the ITTC Network.
Registration for the ITTC virtual launch event is now open
via Zoom. You can also RSVP for the event on
Facebook, and like and follow the ITTC Facebook page for updates
and news from the network.
