Agency Mission Statement

Southern California Alcohol and Drug Programs, Inc. (SCADP) is a 501(c)(3) non-profit organization, dedicated to the prevention and treatment of substance abuse and related problems.

We target underserved and disadvantaged populations, including the homeless, victims of domestic violence, persons living with HIV/AIDS, pregnant and parenting women and their children, as well as Deaf and Hard of Hearing persons and the criminally-involved. SCADP provides over 500 residential treatment beds and 1,000+ outpatient counseling slots that serve over 5,000 men, women and children each year throughout Los Angeles and Orange Counties. Founded in 1972 by the grassroots efforts of community members, SCADP is one of the largest non-profit agencies for the treatment of substance abuse in Southern California.
