Alcohol and Drug Abuse Program (ADAP)

Our treatment staff understands the issues surrounding addiction and helps our clients make a new start - one filled with optimism and healing. We invite you to learn more about our services by calling us at (651) 254-4804.
Expert Care and More
Established in 1972, the Regions Hospital Alcohol and Drug Dependency Program has the experience and tools to help our clients succeed. Our staff of licensed drug and alcohol counselors is supported by a team of health care professionals.
Our unique expertise matching clients with appropriate community resources has been integral to our success. Through long-established community relationships with social service and county agencies and financial and housing organizations, we help clients connect with appropriate community resources to support their long-term recovery.
Programs
While the level of treatment and length of recovery programs differ with every client, the first step is an individual assessment. We help our clients examine their relationship with mood-altering chemicals and develop a realistic plan for intervention. Assessments are available during daytime and evening hours.
The ADAP approach to treatment is client centered, recovery oriented model. We believe that addiction is a chronic Brain disease and as with other chronic diseases needs to be managed long-term.
ADAP acknowledges recovery as a process, not an event. We recognize that there is no one path to recovery. These guiding principles will be used to address the needs of individuals over time, across the full range of services from engagement to intervention, treatment, rehabilitative and supportive services.
