Who we are:
Thresholds Inc. is an outpatient alcohol and drug treatment facility staffed with certified alcohol and drug counselors, and other professionals who work with clients and their families. We help people with problems related to drug and alcohol use. Thresholds began as a DUI treatment program in 1985. Developed in response to an unmanageable client backlog Thresholds designed and implemented a program that eliminated waiting lists statewide within three months of its inception. Since that beginning we have added specialized treatment components to our DUI program and initiated innovative community-based treatment programming with our Comprehensive Outpatient Treatment Program. Thresholds provides early intervention services through our Drug Court Diversion Program and offers a behavior modification program for aggressive drivers. At our foundation, Thresholds is all about helping people change. We know that change can be difficult, that it can even seem impossible. We have come to know that hope, the belief that change can occur, is sometimes a seed that must be planted. Our mission is to instill that hope and promote change.

Basic Philosophy:
Thresholds' goal is to deliver the highest quality education and treatment services to alcohol and drug abuse clients, their families, and the community. We recognize that addiction is a condition that ruins health and arrests the development of a safe and rewarding life. We further believe that given accurate information, an environment where new behaviors are encouraged and practiced, that people are able to significantly alter their behavior.
