California Association For Alcohol Drug Educators Caade

For CAADE:The organization's focus for 2024 was set on rebuilding a stable credentialing service and continuing to operate with prudent financial practices. Even with the focus on credentialing, the organization supported the development and launch of three graduate programs focused on pathways to addiction treatment professions, as well as two community college addiction studies programs. The organization was highly active in representing and supporting addiction studies programs at degree-granting institutions for compliance with changes related to future California requirements for Registered Addiction Counselors and Federal financial aid eligibility for programs in gainful employment.
