What You Need to Know About the Coronavirus Disease (COVID-19)
   |
The evolving Coronavirus Disease (COVID-19) pandemic is undoubtedly affecting all of us, both personally and professionally. As we all deal with the rapidly changing information available, we encourage you to be thoughtful and follow guidance from the CDC, WHO, and other health authorities in determining the policies and practices that you employ during this time.
Below please find some SUD-specific information and resources for your use regarding COVID-19. More information and resources can be found on the COVID-19 Resources page on the NAADAC website, which will be continuously updated as more information becomes available.
In light of the increasing prevalence of COVID-19 in the areas surrounding our office, NAADAC staff is transitioning to working largely remotely. You may find that responses to your submissions and inquiries are slightly delayed as we acclimate into our new remote roles and we ask for your patience. We will continue to do our best to work to support addiction professionals and those they serve.
