Due to reported issues with TrainPA, DDAP has made changes to the following on-demand modules:

  • Drug and Alcohol Confidentiality
  • Case Management Overview

Because of these changes, users who registered for the previous versions will need to withdraw from the course(s) and register for the new version. When searching for the modules, only the new versions will be visible. Contact the DDAP Training Section with questions.

Life Unites Us, a partnership among the Pennsylvania Department of Drug and Alcohol Programs (DDAP), the Douglas W. Pollock Center for Addiction Outreach and Research at Penn State Harrisburg, and the non-profits Shatterproof and The Public Good Projects, is presenting a webinar at 12:00pm Tuesday, July 27, 2021, that will examine DDAP’s history, structure, and strategic goals. In addition, DDAP’s current priorities and initiatives will be discussed. Attendees will also learn how to access trainings, grant opportunities, and technical assistance through the department and other resources, as well as network with members of DDAP’s executive staff. Register for the webinar here.

In its July 15 public meeting, the Independent Regulatory Review Commission (IRRC) disapproved the Department of Drug and Alcohol Programs’ recovery house regulations for licensure in a 4-1 vote. Earlier in the week, the Office of Attorney General and House and Senate committees approved the regulations.

DDAP intends to revise the regulations to respond to IRRC’s concerns and resubmit the regulatory package as soon as possible. The latest draft of the regulations are available on IRRC’s website.
