The Connecticut-based agency offers programs and services for children and families, including the A Better Choice Adolescent Outpatient Substance Abuse Program (ABC). ABC provides treatment services individually tailored to each patient and is structured to address all aspects the mind, body, and spirit. Designed to help teens live productive, healthy lives, the program focuses on equipping participants with the necessary knowledge and support to make better choices. Guidance and support comes through an experienced, multidisciplinary team of licensed therapists and alcohol and drug abuse clinicians. In addition, the multilingual team maintains an active involvement in community preventative measures for drug and alcohol use. The program employs numerous treatment approaches, such as expressive therapies, pharmacological treatments, and Life Is Good Playmaker Therapy. Therapists also provide psychotherapy sessions for individuals, families, and groups.
