The Aboriginal Drug and Alcohol Council (SA)Inc was incorporated in 1993 as a direct result of the Royal Commission Into Aboriginal Deaths in Custody.

ADAC is unique in Australia as it is the only Indigenous peak body of its kind. Currently we represent 20 Aboriginal Community Organisations from across South Australia. ADAC provides responses to a range of state and national committees and strategies, helps communities deal with the problems associated with substance misuse, develops health promotional materials, undertakes research on its own and in collaboration with various universities and key national research organisations.

Vision

Aboriginal communities will be living happy, healthy, high quality lives, free from the harmful effects of substance misuse, and in control of their community programs, by achieving unity, respect, and self determination, through a process of education for re-empowerment and health, delivered by culturally appropriate programs and services, through community participation and individual commitment.
