Methadone Advocacy

 

The National Alliance of
Methadone Advocates (
nama)
holds the view that every individual who believes in methadone treatment
is at least a potential Certified Methadone Advocate (CMA).


We encourage all supporters
of methadone treatment, patient and non-patient, to become Certified
Methadone Advocates so that all energies directed toward the advancement
of methadone treatment produce positive results.


 You
do not have to be a patient to be a methadone advocate.
