Reciprocity Into ICB
Addiction professionals certified by an IC&RC member board who relocate to Illinois may transfer their credential to ICB using the reciprocity process.  To begin, certified addiction professionals must contact their current credentialing board and request a reciprocity application.  Upon completion of the reciprocity application by both the certified addiction professional and the current credentialing board, and upon receipt of this information by ICB, the certified addiction professional will then be issued the equivalent credential offered by ICB.

Reciprocity Out of ICB
Addiction professionals certified as a CRADC, CSADC, CAADC, CADP, CSADP or CCJP by ICB who relocate to another state, country or nation, may transfer their credential to the new jurisdiction using the reciprocity process.  This may only be done if the new jurisdiction is an IC&RC member board, reciprocity to a non-IC&RC member board is not permitted.  Additional requirements may be imposed upon the certified addiction professional depending on the laws and regulations governing the practice of addiction related services in the new jurisdiction.  Therefore, certified professionals are strongly encouraged to contact the IC&RC member board in the new jurisdiction to determine if any additional requirements must be met.  To begin the process, certified professionals must contact ICB and request a reciprocity transfer application.  Upon completion of the application by both the certified addiction professional and ICB, and upon receipt of this information by the certification board in the new jurisdiction, the professional will then be issued the equivalent credential offered in the new jurisdiction unless laws or regulations governing the practice of addiction related services in the new jurisdiction must first be met.  Please note that the CADC is not eligible for reciprocity, the CADC is an Illinois specific credential.  If you currently hold a CADC, you must transition to the CRADC level or above to reciprocate.

If you need further clarification regarding the reciprocity process please feel free to contact Dianne Gutierrez, Senior Operations at 217/698-8110 or email her at Dianne@IAODAPCA.org
