About our client:

Community and collaboration are the core principles of our partner's addiction facilities. When we use the strength of those around us, we can grow stronger ourselves. Our partner's Treatment Centers know that each individual has different struggles and every journey in recovery is unique. Therefore, the treatment plans they develop are tailored and customized for each specific situation. The therapeutic methods they employ at their addiction treatment centers empower patients to make meaningful changes in their own lives, as well as the lives of those around them.

MP's partner is a family of individuals that come from diverse backgrounds; however, addiction affects all of us in the same way. It devastates lives and families. Our partner came together with a simple mission: to help people break free from the bonds of addiction. We are not a "one size fits all" program, and we have the experienced staff and infrastructure to offer individualized treatment plans to best meet the needs of each individual who comes through our doors.
