    The National Association on Drug Abuse Programs (NADAP) is investigating a data security incident that was identified on January 10, 2026, and confirmed to have impacted data by January 27, 2026. A notice was posted on NADAP’s website on February 13, 2026, informing individuals that their personal and health information may have been exposed.

    The breach potentially affected over 400,000 individuals, including clients and employees, primarily in New York.
