The Pregnancy HUB presents a FREE online conference for any pregnant, postpartum, or early parenting person who may have a history of substance use in BC. Pregnancy and early parenting can be challenging at any time and we could all use some extra support and learning to help guide us through this new journey. Please join us for a day of insightful learning and skill development to help you through your pregnancy and early parenting period.

In order to preserve registrants' confidentiality and anonymity, The Pregnancy HUB will be using Zoom Webinar and registrants' video profiles disabled. This conference will be recorded and available for viewing at a later date.
