Whether you're seeking help for yourself, concerned about a colleague, or supporting a family member, recovery is possible. NCDHP connects dental professionals with trusted peer support, confidential assistance, and educational resources that encourage early help-seeking and long-term well-being.
State dental societies maintain confidential dentist health and well-being programs that provide peer support, assistance with help-seeking, referral resources, and professional support services for dentists, dental students, and their families.

The International Doctors in Alcoholics Anonymous (IDAA) is a worldwide fellowship of healthcare professionals and their families affected by substance use and related disorders. Since 1949, it has provided confidential peer support, fellowship, and hope through recovery meetings, educational programs, family support, and an annual conference.
IDAA welcomes healthcare professionals and family members from all backgrounds and supports multiple pathways to recovery. It operates independently and is not affiliated with licensing boards, monitoring programs, government agencies, or any single recovery organization.
