GACA History/Mission
The Georgia
Addiction Counselors Association (GACA) is a non-profit association dedicated
to high standards for professionals who provide addiction
counseling. Established in 1980 to provide a statewide association of
addiction counselors and other persons interested in addiction, GACA is
comprised of a volunteer Board of Directors elected by its membership and a
volunteer Certification Board appointed by the Directors with the sole purpose
of carrying out the mission of the Association. Our express concern was, and
remains, the welfare of persons who are chemically dependent or abusing
mood-altering chemicals in the state of Georgia.
Welcome to the Georgia Addiction Counselors
Association Web Site. We hope you find this site useful and informative. Many
of your basic questions can be answered here. If you need additional
assistance, please feel free to
