Your resource for information, support, and solutions about addiction and prevention
The Center for Alcohol and Drug Resources, a program of Children's Aid and Family Services, educates the Bergen and Passaic County communities about alcohol and drug misuse and advocates for responsive prevention, recovery, and treatment services. We facilitate access to the opportunities, relationships and resources that our residents need to remain healthy and safe and avoid drug related harm. Together, with our community partners, we increase awareness, identify solutions, and implement strategies that support healthy decisions related to the use of tobacco, alcohol and other drugs.
We offer programs that help parents and families connect in a safe and fun way.
We offer recovery support services for individuals who misuse substances and those who love them.
The year 2020 tested all of us in ways large and small; we had to adapt quickly to an ever-changing environment. Virtual learning, Zoom meetings and social distancing were terms that most of us weren’t familiar with in 2019, yet within a few months of 2020, they became part of our everyday vocabulary. By year’s end we can say we not only endured, we found our strength and resilience, and made the best of the challenges we faced.
