Better Addiction Care, a leading US directory for addiction recovery, has acquired the website and digital content rights of the National Alliance for Model State Drug Laws (NAMSDL), a nonprofit devoted to advancing state-level policies to address substance use disorders.
With this acquisition, BAC will preserve access to NAMSDL’s library of model legislation, law-making resources, and policy analysis, ensuring that valuable content remains publicly accessible.
For users seeking NAMSDL materials and historical resources, BAC will maintain a dedicated section with legacy content and provide updated guidance on addiction, substance-use disorder resources, and related policy developments.
Better Addiction Care remains committed to promoting high-quality information on addiction care, recovery pathways, and public-health resources. BAC believes that continuing to host NAMSDL’s content supports informed decision making and helps improve access to accurate, evidence-based resources.
Better Addiction Care’s Mission to Make Addiction Recovery Accessible
Better Addiction Care, founded in 2014, is driven by a mission to empower individuals and families nationwide with free, confidential access to personalized addiction recovery solutions through its comprehensive directory of accredited treatment centers. With a nationwide reach, the platform connects individuals to evidence-based options such as inpatient rehab, detox, outpatient programs, and mental health services. Better Addiction Care streamlines the process of finding quality care, guiding clients with compassion, expertise, and integrity throughout their recovery journey.
NAMSDL’s Policy Improvement Efforts for Better Addiction Solutions
Founded in 1993 as a 501(c)(3) nonprofit, the National Alliance for Model State Drug Laws (NAMSDL) has worked to improve state laws, policies, and practices related to substance use disorders. NAMSDL’s work has centered on prevention, treatment, recovery, overdose prevention, and criminal justice related initiatives.
NAMSDL collaborated with policymakers, subject matter professionals, and individuals with lived experience to develop model legislation and practical tools. Their work addressed topics including opioid related issues, predatory practices, and access to treatment. These efforts provided states with research informed frameworks designed to reduce drug related harms and support affected individuals and families.
Pooling Resources for Greater Impact
Beginning in December 2025, Better Addiction Care will combine its extensive directory of accredited rehab centers, detox programs, and mental health services with NAMSDL’s policy research, model law archives, and educational resources. This combined effort aims to improve access to personalized, research based care while supporting broader public health goals across the United States.
By bringing NAMSDL’s policy legacy together with Better Addiction Care’s treatment directory, the platform will provide a more complete resource for individuals seeking addiction care that includes both policy context and access to treatment options.
Note: This acquisition covers the NAMSDL website and its digital content. The original nonprofit organization is not part of this agreement, and its legal status is unchanged.
