Substance addiction is one of the biggest problems of our age.

A group of voluntary people have set up the International Association Against Substance Abuse (UMUDDER) – a problem which threatens our country, our people and our future.

UMUDDER is a non-governmental organization that operates in Turkey and abroad.

UMUDDER aims to cooperate with public institutions, universities, local governments and non-governmental organizations for an effective struggle against substance addiction. It will focus on scientific researches, studies and projects to remove risk factors, and will inform the citizens.

UMUDDER devotes its work to provide both material and emotional care for our citizens in need and will make every effort to rehabilitate the people in need.

UMUDDER opens its doors to “volunteers” who will take part in social, cultural, sport and educational activities to be carried out in Turkey and abroad.
