Georgia Mountains Community Service

The Athens Recovery mission is to provide the highest level of personalized care and treatment to every client. Our dedicated staff members incorporate compassion and respect into everything they do while working with clients to promote lasting, sustainable sobriety. We provide a therapeutic community, where a safe and serene environment creates an atmosphere conducive to recovery and change. We provide high-quality addiction treatment programs for those struggling with drug and alcohol addiction. In addition, many of our clients face both substance use disorders and co-occurring mental health conditions. Dual diagnosis treatment addresses both conditions at the same time, which can lead to lasting positive outcomes.
