While many drug rehab statistics are nebulous, Narconon boasts a 76% success rate, based on a two year follow-up. A key to our success is the Narconon New Life Detoxification program. Through the use of a sauna, we provide body detoxification that can help eliminate or reduce cravings. Research has shown that, detoxification from drugs or alcohol should be followed by effective treatment to achieve long-term success. We provide that effective treatment. Our non-12 step approach provides life skills necessary to maintain sobriety and lead a successful life. These life skills will help the addict identify and resolve problems through learned techniques, rather than turn to drugs as they have in the past. For more information on how the Narconon program can help you or a loved one, go to www.drugsno.com or www.alternativesentence.com or call 877-413-3073.

Treating Inmates Has Proven Public Health, Safety, and Economic Benefits
Drugs are involved in more and more crimes, yet facilities are not effective in treating drug abuse, a study shows.
“Narconon Drug Rehab was actually started in a prison by William Benitez,” comments Mary Rieser, Executive Director for Narconon Drug Rehab, Atlanta Recovery Center. “This program proved effective in treating the cause of criminality, being drug abuse and the attendant drug addiction and crime, however a study by NIDA (National Institute on Drug Abuse) shows that vast majority of prisoners who could benefit from drug abuse treatment do not receive it, despite two decades of research that demonstrate its effectiveness. Jail alternatives simply are few and far between.”
"Treating drug-abusing offenders improves public health and safety," said NIDA Director and report coauthor Dr. Nora D. Volkow. "In addition to the devastating social consequences for individuals and their families, drug abuse exacts serious health effects, including increased risk for infectious diseases such as HIV and hepatitis C; and treatment for addiction can help prevent their spread. Providing drug abusers with treatment also makes it less likely that these abusers will return to the criminal justice system."
