Advocacy & Education: Supporting Our Members and Their Mission

The Kansas Association of Addiction Professionals (KAAP) is dedicated to promoting excellence in addiction prevention, treatment, and recovery services. We empower our members through high-quality education, up-to-date resources, and advocacy tools that support the delivery of science-based, client-centered care across Kansas communities.

KAAP keeps members informed on critical developments at the local, state, and federal levels—monitoring legislation, policy changes, and emerging trends that impact the field. We speak with a unified, credible voice before the Kansas Legislature and U.S. Congress to advance policies that strengthen the work of addiction professionals and improve outcomes for those they serve.

To support our shared advocacy efforts, we've created a Member Advocacy Toolkit—a practical guide designed to help members engage effectively in policy discussions, both on behalf of KAAP and within their own organizations.
