Our training program is a unique model of public-health education and care. Emphasis is on the safety, simplicity and effectiveness of NADA. The training is competency-based with up to 70 hours of training (or more if needed). It encompasses both informational and clinical experiences. This includes completing 40 supervised acudetox treatments after the classroom portion of training has ended and attending a follow-up session. NADA founder, Mike Smith, reminds us that this is an easy protocol to learn, because “Nature wants us to get it right!”
The training cost is $365.00, which includes all clinical materials, the manual, training and membership fees.This includes materials used for the training, the application fee and one-year membership to NADA, as well as a subscription to the member newsletter, Guidepoints, which comes out quarterly. Additionally, up to 21 CEU credits are available through the Wyoming Chapter of NASW.
