AK Add Rehabilitation Services inc

Alaska Addiction Rehabilitation Services, Inc. (AARS) is one of Alaska's oldest adult residential substance abuse treatment programs, founded in 1982. Located on 116 acres of farmland known as Nugen's Ranch in Point Mackenzie, Wasilla, Alaska, AARS has been serving adults with substance use disorder and co-occurring disorders for over 40 years. The program combines twelve-step recovery, group and individual counseling, life skills training, and work therapy in a supportive residential environment. A distinctive feature is the farm and work-therapy focus, where clients learn about farming and gain a sense of self-worth through work therapy. The facility also offers a vocational education program to develop occupational skills. AARS provides both residential treatment and outpatient transitional housing. Treatment includes individual, family, and group counseling, with daily attendance at AA/NA meetings to help clients develop a healthy recovery network and lasting support.
