Anyone seeking services for a substance abuse problem is offered assistance through an orientation group which is held twice a week. Assessments determine whether individual, family, or group counseling would be the best treatment approach.

We offer an array of services to women, especially those of childbearing age, who have an alcohol or other drug related problem. Experienced female staff evaluate and treat women, addressing specific issues such as family violence. Other supports offered are transportation and childcare services as resources allow.
