ACADC Institute offers Dual Credentials

New Life Spirit Recovery is proud to be affiliated with ACADC Institute. As education providers, we are able to train future drug and alcohol counselors through a biblical worldview on addiction. Because we have a treatment program in operation, our education is fresh, real and offers an intense perspective of the realities of addiction both in individual and family systems.

ACADC provides a pathway to the following credentials:

• The CADTP “SUDCC” Nationally Accredited (NCCA/ICE) and recognized by the California Department of Health Care Services (DHCS) as a Alcohol and Other Drug Counselor Certifying Organization.
• The ACADC “CDAAC” The professional Christian Certificate with progressive options available. This certificate shows potential employers that you have received the necessary Biblical and clinical training to effectively counsel those struggling with addiction issues within the church and Christian Recovery Arena as a whole.  This approach incorporates the Biblical worldview.
