Drug Rehab Philadelphia Applauds Pennsylvania Community College for Tackling Substance Abuse
Philadelphia, PA (PRWEB) June 17, 2015 -- Pennsylvania community college is helping raise public awareness by generating websites and self help apps to help teach the public about addiction, and provide viable resources for those struggling with drug and alcohol use disorders to get help, according to Gov, Tech on May 13th. The websites are geared towards addressing the heroin epidemic in Pennsylvania in hopes of providing relief and education for those who are, or who know others, struggling with opiate use disorders. The icing on the cake is that students were not compelled by a reward to complete projects helping to spread awareness about addiction, but seemed to do so out of their own altruism to help those in need of addiction and recovery treatment. Drug Rehab Philadelphia is an addiction treatment center specializing in heroin and alcohol rehab in Philadelphia. The addiction treatment center encourages its own community of Philadelphia to become active in spreading awareness about the throes of drug and alcohol use disorders.
Drug Rehab Philadelphia provides addiction treatment in Philadelphia for all stages of addiction, including substance abuse. The center would like to see more community engagement in addiction studies to spread awareness for those in need of treatment- changing the stigma of addiction and treatment. An associate comments, “What Pennsylvania community college is doing is a wonderful thing. Most people condemn addiction without knowing what the disease actually entails. Most assume those suffering from an alcohol or substance use disorder are morally deficient but this isn’t even a factor in the case for addiction. If more people knew addiction is a physical and mental affliction, the stigma around treatment and addiction would not be fraught with disdain.
“The more community engagement we can elicit from the people around us, the stronger community support recovering addicts will have access to, and be surrounded by, thereby improving the success of recovery, and avoidance of relapse. Addiction manifests itself in environments conducive to shame and exposure to addictive substances. When we cut those factors out of the equation, addiction can no longer thrive.”
Drug Rehab Philadelphia provides clients with drug and alcohol addiction treatment and accepts patients from all over the state. The rehabilitation center focuses on medical treatment and holistic healing for a comprehensive approach to drug and alcohol addiction treatment. The center accepts most major insurance companies and helps clients create manageable payment plans.
