NADD Conferences
October 2013 Annual Conference 30 Years of Progress: Ready for the Future 23-25 October Baltimore, MD
“The NADD competency-based clinical certification has provided me with an avenue to verify a dual diagnosis specialty. My ability to provide clinical supports to individuals supported both by medical assistance and private insurances has been expanded by allowing me to gain access to closed insurance networks. These networks had been closed to me prior to receiving this certification, allowing this population to remain largely unserved outside of community mental health centers.” Alyse Kerr, MS, NCC, LPC, NADD-CC NADD Membership OfferNADD is offering a special introductory new member rate of $99 for 2013.
