About Project Eden

Established in 1967 by a local pediatrician and community members, Project Eden delivers outpatient counseling, education, and support services to youth and families in the community. Since joining Horizon Treatment Services, the center has helped the youth navigate high-risk behaviors, substance use, and emotional challenges. Comprehensive services through the Youth Services Program, Lambda Youth Project, and Lambda Drop-In Center are available at no cost to participants.
At Project Eden, adolescents receive individual, family, and group counseling designed to meet their emotional, social, and educational needs. The center offers evidence-based prevention programs in schools, crisis support, parent workshops, and community events. Prevention Specialists help patients build healthy decision-making skills, manage emotions, and strengthen family relationships, all within a compassionate, welcoming environment.
The Lambda Youth Project, a specialized program under Project Eden, offers LGBTQIA+ youth ages 12–24 a safe space for support and community resources. Designed for those at higher risk of substance use and co-occurring disorders, the program empowers young people through counseling and youth engagement initiatives. Its services expanded with the opening of a Drop-In Center, a welcoming hub for connection, guidance, and care.

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. The National Institute on Drug Abuse (NIDA) emphasizes that treatment programs combining behavioral therapy with medication-assisted approaches show the highest rates of sustained recovery. Facilities like Project Eden 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.

Project Eden offers 2 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 6 evidence-based therapeutic modalities. According to NIDA research, combination therapy approaches that integrate behavioral interventions (such as 1-on-1 Counseling and Family Therapy) with holistic support show significantly improved outcomes compared to single-modality programs.

Under the Mental Health Parity and Addiction Equity Act, most commercial insurance plans are required to cover substance abuse treatment. Project Eden works with 24 insurance providers. Call (833) 567-5838 to verify your specific coverage and learn about out-of-pocket costs before admission.
