The  RP  can  support  and  assist  the  chaplain in this area by compiling and maintaining a cur- rent   list   of   Navy,   Government,   and   civilian agencies   and   programs   that   can   provide assistance   to   alcohol   and   drug   dependent military  personnel  and  their  families.  A  record should  also  be  maintained  of  the  key  personnel within these agencies and programs and the RP should   maintain   a   close   working   relationship with   these   key   people.   This   information   will provide   the   chaplain   with   a   comprehensive reference  of  services  and  facilities  that  can  pro- vide  the  most  appropriate  source  of  treatment for  the  alcohol  or  drug  dependent  person. In its concern for the welfare of its members, the  Navy  goes  far  beyond  the  basic  needs,  such as,  health  care  and  housing,  to  offer  assistance in many other areas. One very important area in which the Navy has provided assistance is in the area of alcohol and drug dependency. The Navy- wide  plan  of  action  for  controlling  alcohol  and drug abuse is an efficient program which entails identification,   evaluation,   referral,   and   treat- ment  of  alcohol  and  drug  dependent  personnel. Key   elements   within   the   Navy’s   program   are the  Navy  Alcohol  and  Drug  Abuse  Program (NADAP),  the  Navy  Alcohol  Safety  Action  Pro- gram   (NASAP),   and   the   civilian   Employee Assistance  Program  (EAP). THE  NAVY  ALCOHOL  AND  DRUG ABUSE  PROGRAM  (NADAP) The  Navy  maintains  that  alcohol  and  drug dependency  are  preventable  and  treatable  and has  developed  a  realistic  and  practical  program to  prevent  drug  and  alcohol  abuse.  This  pro- gram operates throughout the Navy on a world- wide  basis  and  is  known  as  the  Navy  Alcohol and   Drug   Abuse   Program   (NADAP).   NADAP provides a wide range of services to military per- sonnel  and  their  families  through  the  following facilities: Counseling   and   Assistance   Centers (CAACs) Alcohol  Rehabilitation  Centers  (ARCs) Navy   Drug   Rehabilitation   Centers (NDRCs) Human   Resource   Management   Centers (HRMCs) The  Marine  Corps  Alcohol  Abuse  Adminis- tration  and  Management  Program  is  similar  to NADAP.  This  program  is  described  in  MCO 5355.1. Counseling and Assistance Centers (CAACs) Counseling  and  Assistance  Centers  (CAACs) have  been  established  at  various  locations throughout  the  Navy  to  provide  assistance  to individuals and the commands to which they are assigned  in  the  identification,  evaluation,  refer- ral, and treatment of personnel with alcohol and drug-related  problems. During  the  course  of  evaluating  people  who are   referred   to   Counseling   and   Assistance Centers,  problems  other  than  drug  and  alcohol abuse   often   surface.   The   treatment   plan developed   during   the   evaluation   attempts   to address  all  of  the  client’s  problems.  In  order  to assist the client in areas outside the scope of the CAAC,  a  referral  system  is  maintained  in  the following  areas: Marital  Counseling Family  Counseling Sexual  Counseling Vocational   Counseling Educational  Counseling Financial  Counseling Race  Relations Assistance Housing  Assistance Al-Anon Alateen Alcoholics   Anonymous Legal  Counseling Religious  Counseling Venereal  Disease  Infor- mation Military  Career  Coun- seling Psychiatric  Disorders Intercultural Relations Guidance Family Planning and Birth  Control Veterans’  Administration Programs Narcotics  Anonymous Public Health Facilities Navy  Relief  Society 5-33
