We are thrilled to announce the Call for Proposals for the 2023 Annual Conference, Against the Grain: Shifting the Societal Denial of Dissociation! The 2023 Annual Conference will be held April 13-17, 2023 at the Omni Louisville Hotel in Louisville, KY.  

The Call for Proposals is open August 1 – September 15, 2022. We invite creative, innovative, and exciting presentations representing all aspects of understanding, researching, and treating intergenerational trauma, complex trauma and dissociative disorders. We encourage solid scientific and clinically grounded presentations. 

Please note that there have been updates to the submission requirements, which are reflected on the Submission Guidelines page of the Annual Conference website. The Call for Proposals will not be extended beyond September 15, so make sure to get your submissions in early! All presenters who submit before September 1 will be entered into a drawing for a free year of membership with ISSTD!

Select presentations from this conference will be livestreamed for virtual participation but all presenters must present live in-person in Louisville. No presenters will be streamed in to the conference. If you are not able to present in-person your submission will not be accepted. 

Early Bird Registration for the 2023 Annual Conference will open in early December 2022.
