Four County Mental Health Center's Alcohol & Drug
Outpatient Treatment Services subscribes to the philosophy that alcohol and drug
addiction is a disease which reduces the overall quality of life and endangers physical and mental health.
Early intervention is important by treating persons who are abusing alcohol
or drugs prior to addiction. However, it is never too late to get help!
The Alcohol/Drug Abuse program also believes that alcoholism/addiction is a family disease.
The program views
treatment of the co-dependency of family members/significant others as an
integral part of the treatment program.
The Alcohol & Drug Outpatient
Treatment Services at Four County is licensed by the Addiction & Prevention
Services (AAPS) under the Department of Social and Rehabilitation Services
with the State of Kansas. The program provides alcohol and drug counseling
services on an outpatient basis to residents of Montgomery, Wilson, Elk, and
Chautauqua County. Preventive education services are also available to at
risk individuals and their families. |
