ASAC literally saved my life due to alcohol abuse. The staff is caring about your recovery. If you truly want a sober/clean new beginning ASAC is the place to be. They give you the tools needed for a ...

It was effective at the time. It was local, affordable, and not a lockup. It seemed like a government take on rehab.

There is a greater need for services than any agency can keep up with. It is easy for those with court ordered treatment to manipulate the system. The staff here is caring.

Areas of Focus
Residential Treatment

Residential treatment programs provide housing (food and meals) in addition to treatment for substance abuse. Some facilities offer only short-term residential treatment, some offer only long-term treatment and others offer both, ranging from a few days to many months, based on patient needs.

Intensive Outpatient (IOP)

Patients who undergo intensive outpatient treatment continue to live at home and sometimes go to school or work while participating in a highly structured treatment protocol that is focused on ending substance abuse. Programs vary in terms of how much treatment patients receive, how often and for how long. Some facilities design individualized intensive outpatient treatment programs.
