The Bay Area Council On Drugs & Alcohol, Inc. (BACODA) is a Houston-based nonprofit dedicated to reducing alcohol and drug abuse in the Texas Bay Area. Founded in 1974 by a diverse group of parents, business leaders, medical professionals, and civic leaders, it was established to centralize information on substance use and to support prevention and intervention efforts. The organization provides a range of services, including information sharing, educational programs for all ages, screenings and assessments, outreach and referrals, and short-term counseling, with options available in bilingual formats and within confidential settings. BACODA serves school districts, criminal justice referrals, medically indigent individuals, adults and youths struggling with substance use, families, and the broader public across southeast Harris County, all of Galveston County, and northern Brazoria County, reaching a population of about 1.2 million people per the 2000 Census. Services are offered on a sliding scale, and no person is denied care due to lack of funds. The organization operates as a United Way agency, is governed by a volunteer board of directors, and holds 501(c)3 status.
