Kathy WhitmireResidential Treatment in Toccoa, GA
Great to meet you
The Center for Wellness and Recovery of Northeast Georgia was founded in May 2021 to address the opioid crisis in Stephens County, Georgia. The center was established by a dedicated group of stakeholders committed to reducing fatal opioid overdoses in the community. The facility provides detox and treatment solutions for substance use disorders and mental health conditions. The center operates on the fundamental principle that addiction should be treated as a chronic disease rather than an acute episode. The experienced staff works collaboratively with clients and their families to provide person-centered care, helping individuals understand and overcome addiction while fostering hope and inspiration for recovery.
