Drug and alcohol addiction can be devastating to the family of an abuser. The family’s role in the recovery process is vital.
In order to achieve a balanced and successful recovery, AACC believes it is important for patients to understand their disease through Educational Meetings.
The heart and soul of AACC is Group Therapy. There are two types of group sessions: experiential and reality.
The Commencement Center in Athens, Georgia strives to be the outstanding Substance Abuse Disorder Treatment Program in North Georgia. Our treatment is based on the most current science and medical understanding of addiction as a disease affecting the addict, family and community.
