We need your help with a short survey to understand how well people in our community know about the International Certified Addiction Professional (ICAP) credential.
The Global Recovery Network is committed to providing valuable and relevant content for our community.
To ensure our upcoming webinar series aligns with the needs and interests of our audience, we have developed this survey with U.S. based Faces and Voices of Recovery to determine which topics may be of most relevance.

Your feedback is crucial in helping us design a webinar series that resonates with and benefits you.
