Testing Fee Letter (3/29/2010): Since
2004 our testing for ADRA credentials has been paid through a contract between
OAD and LASACT. Due to budget cuts LASACT has been notified that effective
April 30, 2010 this contract will be eliminated. Previously applicants were
only requred to pay the application fee of $100.00 to ADRA. |
Effective
immediately appliants will also be responsible for the testing fee of
$275.00 payable to LASACT CEB in advance of the exam. LASACT tests
quarterly, March, June, September and December. Payment must be made to
LASACT at the first of the month preceding the exam. (February 1, May 1,
August 1, and November 1) in order for an exam to be ordered. Upon successful
completion of an exam you will return your pass fail grade to us for
completion of the application process.

Best Practice Advisory -
Housing Clients |
In
the history of recovery it is clear that the practice of Bill Wilson and
others was to house and feed those with whom they were working. It is
important, however, to distinguish between 12 step work and clinical
treatment. The ADRA Board urges counselors to guard against eroding the
clinical relationship. It is suggested that by housing clients in one’s home
a counselor runs the risk of undermining their effectiveness as a counselor
and may sabotage the client’s treatment.
