Asian American Drug Abuse Program
Los Angeles Water Conservation Council

AADAP fights drug abuse and runs the AADAP Residential Drug Treatment Program to help members of the community. AADAP helped conserve water by offering community residents and program graduates employment and job training in the former Ultra Low-Flush Toilet Distribution Program. AADAP serves all ethnic groups in Crenshaw, Hawthorne, Lawndale, Carson, Gardena and other South Bay communities.

AADAP serves people throughout Los Angeles County. Programs have expanded to include water conservation, HIV/AIDS outreach and cross training, Drug Court Services for the Inglewood Municipal Courts, tobacco education, and it's new for profit business venture, MTC Construction. Much has changed since those early days in 1972, but one thing that remains is AADAP's motto and philosophy: "People Need People." It was true then. It's true now.
