Texas Commission on Alcohol and Drug Abuse explained

The Texas Commission on Alcohol and Drug Abuse (TCADA) was a state agency of Texas, headquartered in Austin.[1] TCADA replaced the previous agency, the Texas Commission on Alcoholism (TCA) and was established by Senate Bill 601 during the 69th Legislature.[2] The agency made efforts to prevent abuse of alcohol and recreational drugs among Texas residents.

The passage of House Bill 2292 of the 78th Texas Legislature in 2003[3] merged four state agencies, including TCADA, into the Texas Department of State Health Services.[4]
