About Action on Addiction
Action on Addiction makes every effort to provide professional, caring treatment in a non-clinical setting. Treatment focuses on individual and group therapy rooted in 12-Step philosophy. Through creative therapies, Action on Addiction explores behaviors, feelings, and thoughts to gain more insight into the underlying cause of the addiction. Creative therapies can include role play, art and music therapy, expressive arts, yoga, and more. Action on Addiction also believes family therapy plays a key role in the recovery process. They include family members in 12-Step groups and other topics of discussion.
Evidence-Based Context: According to SAMHSA's National Survey on Drug Use and Health (2023), approximately 48.7 million Americans aged 12 or older had a substance use disorder in the past year.

Facilities like Action on Addiction provide structured pathways to evidence-based care. Sources: SAMHSA NSDUH 2023, NIDA Principles of Drug Addiction Treatment (4th Ed.)

Understanding Your Treatment Options
Choosing the right treatment facility is one of the most important decisions in the recovery journey. Research published by the National Institute on Drug Abuse (NIDA) shows that treatment duration, therapeutic approach, and aftercare planning are the three strongest predictors of long-term sobriety.
Action on Addiction offers 3 distinct levels of care, allowing patients to step through treatment intensities as they progress. This continuum-of-care model — moving from higher to lower intensity — is recommended by SAMHSA as the gold standard for addiction treatment.
The facility utilizes 7 evidence-based therapeutic modalities. According to NIDA research, combination therapy approaches that integrate behavioral interventions (such as 1-on-1 Counseling and Cognitive Behavioral Therapy) with holistic support show significantly improved outcomes compared to single-modality programs.
