Julian F.Keith Alcohol and Drug Abuse Treatment Center

The Julian F. Keith Alcohol and Drug Abuse Treatment Center (JFK ADATC), is an 80 bed residential and detox/crisis stabilization treatment facility designed to meet the needs of alcohol and other drug dependent adults of the 36 westernmost counties in North Carolina. The facility treats chemically dependent consumers and also those who have a substance abuse and psychiatric diagnosis. The length of stay at JFK ADATC is variable and determined by individual need. We are part of a continuum of care that begins with the Local Management Entity/Local Provider who makes the referral to our facility. Admission is available to any adult consumer in the 36 county region regardless of financial resources or insurance status. JFK ADATC operates under the authority of the State of North Carolina through the Department of Health and Human Services, Division of Mental Health, Developmental Disabilities and Substance Abuse Services.  

Our mission as stated by DHHS, Div. Of MH/DD/SA is "to provide medically monitored detoxification, crisis stabilization, and short-term treatment to prepare adults with substance abuse and co-occurring problems for ongoing community-based recovery services."
