What is a LADC and What is a LADC Evaluation?
In New Hampshire, a Licensed Alcohol and Drug Counselor (LADC) provides a wide range of services to individuals experiencing substance use issues. There are two levels of LADC credentials:
LADC - Licensed Alcohol and Drug Counselor
MLADC - Master’s Licensed Alcohol and Drug Counselor
Both credential levels are qualified to conduct LADC evaluations.

Reasons for a LADC Evaluation
A LADC evaluation may be warranted for various reasons. Often, these evaluations are court-ordered, whether by family court, legal court, or another judicial body. Additionally, evaluations can be recommended by schools, spouses, or other organizations and individuals in one's life.
What to Expect from a LADC Evaluation
At the conclusion of a LADC evaluation, individuals can expect to gain a better understanding of their substance use, receive recommendations for addressing it, and a written report.
