Our Principles of Treatment
- Treatment should be modified to match the needs of clients, not the reverse
- Individual needs are different and client treatment plans must recognize this
- Every effort must be made to build self-esteem and incorporate opportunities for success throughout treatment
- Clients must be partners in their treatment and include shared decision making with the entire community
- Support continues when formal treatment ends, through Aftercare
- Treatment must be constantly evaluated and improved upon
