Addiction Treatment Services

At ATSI, clients receive a true continuum of care. Our staff members are here to guide individuals through the entire recovery process, from the first call to our admissions department to the time they complete our program. And since treatment doesn’t end upon completion, our aftercare support program ensures each individual has the tools needed to remain clean and sober, and to avoid relapse.
