Proposed Regulation – Alcohol and Drug Counselor Committee

NEWARK – The Board of Marriage and Family Therapy Examiners, in consultation with the Alcohol and Drug Counselor Committee, is proposing to readopt, with new rules and amendments, its rules concerning the provision of alcohol and drug counseling services.

The proposal repeals and adds new rules to implement P.L. 2013, c.182, which became effective on July 1, 2014, and which modifies the reinstatement and reactivation requirements for professional or occupational licensees. The Board is also proposing amendments to update rules and codify current standards of practice and licensure requirements.

The proposed re-adoption of the regulations, and information on how to submit a comment by December 16, 2016, can be viewed here.
