How Arizona Licensed Alcohol and Drug Counselor license verification works

A Licensed Alcohol and Drug Counselor in Arizona is licensed by the AZ Behavioral Health / Counseling & Social Work Boards. PrimaryCheck looks the license up live at the board's public verification system (board lookup) by license number, or by name when no number is supplied. The record the board publishes is captured as evidence, hashed, and rendered into a proof PDF.
