About the Council...
Incorporated in 1967, the Mohawk Valley Council on Alcoholism and Addictions, Inc. is a community resource agency that provides information and assistance on alcoholism, and drug and alcohol abuse.

We maintain complete and current information on 12 step meeting groups such as Alcoholics Anonymous, Al-Anon, Co-dependent's Anonymous, ACOA groups, Narcotics Anonymous, Overeaters Anonymous and Gamblers Anonymous. All calls regarding client contact and meeting inquiries are confidential.
