SC DAODAS Care and Resources

The South Carolina Department of Alcohol and Other Drug Abuse Services (DAODAS) is the state governmental agency responsible for making sure South Carolinians have access to quality services related to substance use and addictions.  DAODAS serves as a guide for those seeking prevention, treatment, and recovery services. 

DAODAS helps provide direct services for the general public and high-risk groups by working with its local provider network – 31 county alcohol and drug abuse authorities – to deliver the majority of services to people living in all 46 counties of the state. DAODAS also works with a large number of public and private service providers to address substance use disorders throughout the state, including 28 opioid treatment programs, 12 recovery community organizations, eight hospitals, five state agencies, four universities, and over 100 community distributors of antidote naloxone.
