Mission Statement

To unify and serve Addictions Professionals to provide public safety while further enhancing the quality of addiction services for the residents of Saskatchewan.

To protect the public with capable, credible, competent and certified addictions professionals.

	Are you feeling secure in your position as an Addictions Worker? No Most of the time Absolutely

The Saskatchewan Association of Chemical Dependency Workers (SACDW) was formed in 1996, assisting its members by providing a vehicle to facilitate closer communication, and to promote a common approach in all areas of chemical dependency counselling, prevention, policy and procedure.

In 2007, the name was changed to the Addiction Professionals Association of Saskatchewan (APASK) to accommodate partnership with the SK/MB chapter of the Canadian Addictions Counsellors Certification Federation (CACCF), and apply for licensure.

What unites us necessitates we work together to find better ways.
