Since NCADD was founded in 1944, NCADD has had as two of its key aims and objectives to circulate literature containing the known facts on the problem of alcoholism and drug dependence and to bring all the facts about alcoholism and drug dependence before the public, using literature and other media.  We have continued these objectives with publication of an assortment of materials and a wide range of subjects through facts sheets, brochures, books and videos.

Our brochures cover such topics as “What Should I Tell My Child About Drinking?,” “What Are the Signs of Alcoholism?,” “Just the Facts:  Marijuana,” and “The Disease of Alcoholism.”

Our public education campaign, Hope, Help and Healing includes personal stories of recovery and has accompanying  posters:

• “I Ran Out of People to Blame”
  Recovery of All Ages:  Personal Stories of Recovery
• “I Wasn’t Having Fun Anymore”
  Youth Recovery:  Personal Stories of Young Recovery
• “We Realized That We Couldn’t Control It”
  Family Recovery:  Personal Stories of Family Recovery

NCADD Fact Sheets cover basic facts about prevention, alcoholism and alcohol-related problems, birth defects, women and alcohol, drinking and drugged driving, workplace issues and underage drinking.

NCADD Bookstore:  The NCADD Bookstore provides access to NCADD publications, several books including The Biography of Mrs. Marty Mann:  The First Lady of Alcoholics Anonymous (about NCADD’s Founder) and Believe in Recovery wristbands.
