The philosophy of MARS-ATP is that addiction is a disease. As a result MARS-ATP will seek to provide client-centered, community based quality treatment services to those suffering from addictions in the least restrictive and most-cost effective level of care. We will adjust our approach to meet the needs present in each community we serve by being part of the community and advocating for the effective, efficient, and effective treatment of each individual who is in need of our services. We will help individuals achieve recovery by creating hope and developing the skills necessary to move each individual through their unique process of change.
