Today is National Addiction Professionals Day! Join NAADAC in recognizing and celebrating vital players of the health system and continuum of care - addiction professionals.

Started by NAADAC, the Association for Addiction Professionals in 1992, the day was established to commemorate the hard work that addiction professionals do on a daily basis. NAADAC is the largest membership organization for addiction-focused healthcare professionals and represents the professional interests of more than 100,000 addiction counselors, educators and other addiction-focused health care professionals in the United States, Canada and abroad.

"We welcome everyone to join us on September 20, or hold their own local event, to celebrate the powerful work that addiction services professionals do. As each life is recovered, that helps the whole family and eventually translates into the recovery of a community," said Cynthia Moreno Tuohy, NCAC II, CDC III, SAP, NAADAC Executive Director.

As part of its National Addiction Professionals Day celebration, NAADAC honors its 2019 Award Winners. This year NAADAC will present awards to seven outstanding individuals and one outstanding organization for their extraordinary service and contributions to the addiction profession.
