How We Support You
We exist to support our members. They are passionate about making a difference for individuals, whānau and communities, and we are passionate about making a difference for them.
As kaitiaki of Tikanga Matatika – Code of Ethics, and the Addiction Intervention Competency Framework, we foster and maintain ethical and competent addiction practice in Aotearoa New Zealand.
We uphold the standards and reputation of the sector through a robust registration process. We manage practitioner registration, support worker endorsement and clinical supervisor accreditation.
We provide professional development, networking and training opportunities to support competent and effective practice, and to enable members to meet registration renewal requirements.
