Serving the Community Since 1977
Nearly 40 years ago, our founder, Walter S. Jackson, had a dream of a community-based program that would offer addiction treatment services for the Five Points community. More importantly, Walter Jackson didn’t just dream, he went to work. He organized the community. He gained support from a wid
e range of social investors to finance the services. He recruited a strong personnel staff that understood the challenges of addiction in a personal and professional way. He fulfilled a need for the community and—at the same time--realized his dream! That dream is still alive and has been sustained by community support, hard work, and sensitive, competent staff who are dedicated to those we serve. We enter this Year with a renewed sense of purpose, commitment, and a touch of Walter’s spirit. We look forward to continuous improvement of the services we currently provide along with plans for implementation of new programs and services to meet the ever-changing needs of community. We look forward to the opportunity to serve you--this year and many more-- with anticipation, excitement, and appreciation.
