Our Philosophy on Addiction
• We recognize that addiction is a complex, chronic,
and treatable illness resulting from an interaction of
human biology, environment, and behavior.
• We believe that all individuals have the innate health
and capacity to recover.
• We believe recovery happens in the context of
relationship and community.
• We respect the dignity and recognize the uniqueness
of each individual and the need for individualized
treatment.
