About Keystone Treatment Center
Since its inception in 1973, Keystone Treatment Center has established itself as a nationally recognized inpatient and outpatient treatment center for substance use disorders and co-occurring mental health concerns. At our inpatient facility in Canton, South Dakota, just 30 minutes from Sioux Falls, we treat adolescents and adults age 19 and older of all genders who are struggling with addictions to alcohol and other drugs. Through a variety of transformative treatments, which may include cognitive behavioral therapy (CBT), dialectical behavior therapy (DBT), experiential groups, and the 12-Step model, Keystone Treatment Center delivers evidence-based care in an atmosphere of trust and honesty. For those who need to rid their bodies of substances prior to beginning treatment, we also offer medical detoxification with 24/7 monitoring.

With a semirural setting on 13 acres of land, our facility allows for quaint moments of reflection and serenity throughout the treatment process. At Keystone Treatment Center, we tailor our treatment plans to each unique individual, offering gender-specific programming to all patients and programming that is directly geared toward those who are struggling with a gambling addiction.
