The National Association of Addiction Treatment Providers (NAATP) supports addiction treatment programs nationwide through education, advocacy, and networking. To better serve its members, NAATP needed a faster, more flexible platform for its member directory. Partnering with Skvare, the organization modernized its site using Drupal 11 and React, while keeping CiviCRM as the single source of member data.

The new site offers a fast, interactive directory where visitors can explore treatment providers by location, services, and programs.

Challenge

The previous Drupal 7 site had reached end of life, creating security risks and limiting the ability to make improvements. Managing member listings and displaying data from CiviCRM was limited by older tools and templates. The site lacked intuitive filtering, interactive search, and a seamless way to pull dynamic data from CiviCRM without slowing down performance.

NAATP wanted a modern, scalable solution that improved user experience while preserving the powerful membership and relationship management already handled in CiviCRM.

Solution

Skvare implemented a modern front end using React with Drupal 11 for content management and CiviCRM for structured member data. This setup allows the website to display accurate, real-time information from CiviCRM in a fast, engaging way.

Using Drupal Views, the site pulls CiviCRM data such as organization name, city, state, treatment types, and insurance accepted. React presents this information instantly on the front end, making it easy for visitors to search, filter, and explore member listings.

The project also introduced several major improvements:

  • Interactive map for browsing treatment providers by state or region
  • Faster, smarter search with ranked results for better accuracy
  • Instant updates as changes in CiviCRM appear immediately on the site
  • SEO enhancements with URLs and meta tags generated from CiviCRM fields
  • Accessibility improvements for color contrast, font size, and navigation

Together, these updates modernized the member experience while keeping CiviCRM as the single, reliable source of data across the entire site.

Results

  • CiviCRM remains the single, reliable source of truth for all member data.
  • React delivers instant, intuitive search and filtering for visitors.
  • Members and staff manage profiles more easily, with updates reflected instantly in the directory.
  • Search visibility improved through structured URLs and automated meta data from CiviCRM fields.
  • The new site is faster, more accessible, and positioned for future growth.

Summary

Together, these improvements give NAATP a modern, flexible platform that connects members and staff through accurate, real time data from CiviCRM.
