I want to learn about TAADAS membership

Membership in the Tennessee Association of Alcohol, Drugs and other Addiction Services is more than a purchase of services.


It is also an investment in a philosophy - in a cause. It is a shared belief that alcohol and drug abuse are treatable and preventable; that the availability of quality treatment and prevention services to all Tennessee citizens is important; and that by joining together, we can do more than we can do individually.


Join our community of advocates, peers, addiction counselors, treatment providers and more!


“I stay abreast of what is happening locally and around the state through our affiliation with TAADAS. Also because of TAADAS, I've been able to connect with peers who are doing similar work in our community and they've become a resource for us. I appreciate Mary Linden and her team!!!”


Pamela Sessions

CEO, Renewal House

“I am appreciative that TAADAS is a peer group for the sharing of ideas, advocacy, fellowship and being a voice for those we serve, when so many times their voices are not heard.”
