ADIS (Alcohol Drug Information School)

Service Description

The Alcohol and Drug Information School (ADIS) is an 8-hour educational course for people referred by a court or other jurisdiction, including those assessed and found not to need treatment. It meets Washington’s ADIS standards under WAC 246-341-0746 and uses course materials published by The Change Companies. Topics include the effects of alcohol and other drugs on the body and brain, patterns of use and the warning signs that separate use, misuse, and dependency, and current Washington laws and the consequences of substance use violations. The course ends with a post-test and a certificate of completion. Taking this course doesn’t mean you’re assumed to have a substance use disorder, and it isn’t therapy. The course is taught by a Washington State Certified Substance Use Disorder Professional (SUDP) and National Certified Addiction Counselor (NCAC I). WHAT THIS CLASS REQUIRES: - A valid photo ID, uploaded when you book or brought to class. - A release of information, so we can send your completion to your referral source. - If you were assessed elsewhere, a copy of that assessment. Select your class date at checkout, and you’ll receive a confirmation email for your records. You’re responsible for meeting your own court or probation deadlines, and Availia doesn’t guarantee a specific completion date. Fees are non-refundable.
