Our Accomplishments

Program Success

Over its 56 years in existence, Heartland House has provided a successful patient-centered social model program, adapting our approach in response to ongoing research in the field of addiction recovery. Our program looks at the whole individual — his needs, obstacles and liabilities, as well as his strengths, assets, resources and support structures – to help him adopt and maintain a clean and sober way of life.

Our results show the success of our program. In fiscal year 2015-16, we achieved or exceeded all our targets.
