The mission of the Treatment Programs department is to provide assessment and intervention to the offender population as well as the general public. Offenders may be referred to diversionary programs, as appropriate. These programs are designed to target maladaptive behavior. It is the long-term goal of the staff to stabilize the individual and also assist with a healthy transition into society.

No client will be denied services from this facility due to his/ her inability to pay. We also bill patients through Medicare, Medicaid or private pay. Cost for outpatient is an initial enrollment fee of $50 and drug screening fees of $10 per week. Aftercare is also offered to graduates.

Admissions are normally taken Monday thru Friday between the hours of 8 AM and 3 PM, Monday through Friday and are taken from a waiting list maintained by the admission clerk. In some cases admissions can be completed outside of the regular hours.
