California Consortium of Addiction Programs and Professionals

What it reported doing in 2024

Celebrating over 50 years of leading change in the treatment and recovery space.CCAPP is the largest state-wide consortium of community-based for-profit and non-profit substance-use disorder treatment agencies and addiction focused professionals, providing services to over 100,000 California residents annually in residential, outpatient, and private practice settings. Its thousands of individual members and 500 program and recovery residence members provide substance-use disorder treatment services in the majority of the Department of Health Care Services (DHCS) licensed and/or certified sites throughout California, and constitute the largest infrastructure of the state's publicly funded substance-use disorder treatment network. CCAPP is the only state-wide consortium representing all modalities of substance-use disorder treatment and recovery programs and is one of the most recognized and trusted advocacy organizations in the addiction services space in California. This year our organization added new funding streams to increase revenues in furtherance of CCAPPs mission and resources to its membership. Through a highly motivated leadership team who have the outstanding ability to listen to the pulse of our membership, committed staff, volunteers, and an engaged membership, all three organizations are financially healthy and continue to be a dedicated resource for our membership. CCAPP has had an extremely productive legislative year despite challenging circumstances. CCAPP sponsored legislation, shaped trailer bills, worked on implementation efforts for several bills from last year, monitored multiple regulatory packages, and made a historic push to topple local ordinances that ban recovery residence housing.In September, we celebrated National Recovery Month with our 32nd Annual Recovery Happens. ARCC works hard each year as the planning committee of this event to put on this statewide kickoff to Recovery Month. This year we sold out of all exhibit booths and attracted a crowd of upwards of 5,000 attendees to the event. This event furthers recovery awareness and destigmatizes recovery; work we are incredibly proud of. This year the Membership Committees goal has been getting members back in the fold. As we continue on in the aftermath of the many distance innovations COVID has brought us, this committee felt it was time to rejuvenate CCAPPs spirit of fellowship, the spirit that draws us together and makes our organization so strong. This year we launched the Connection Campaign to invigorate our membership and attract some new friends along the way.Other accomplishments this year include winning the Learn and Earn Grant; Passing SB 10, a bill which expands overdose protocols in schools; successful completion of the HEAR US Grant; revamping of Program meetings for success; launching of CCAPP in TikTok and new and improved social media; successfully finished our recovery resident county contract with Ventura and introduced hardship language in a licensing fee increase bill to minimize impact of fee increase.Lastly, CCAPP is creating an additional benefit for members; a test prep study program. This will be a six-week, once-a-week, study guide-led program that registrants can be a part of if they are CCAPP members so they can have material and a mentor to help them study.
