Recovery begins with the first step.
PAACA is often
seen as the “MASH” unit in the war on drugs because we are the entry point or triage center for people entering
the continuum of care. With a 27-year history of “one addict helping another” we are able to
provide services that conventional treatment agencies are unable to because of the support of our many volunteers.
