What this bill does

Plain-language analysis by the nonpartisan Legislative Reference Bureau

Under current law, the Department of Safety and Professional Services (DSPS)

designates and certifies substance abuse counselors, clinical supervisors, and

prevention specialists. DSPS also certifies prevention specialists-in-training,

whose certification may be renewed only twice. This bill eliminates the prevention

specialist-in-training designation and certification.
