Treatment Philosophy:
Alcoholism and drug addiction is considered by many to be the nation's number one health crisis. It is a disease that causes close to 40% of hospital admissions. Tragedies resulting from alcohol and drug abuse make it a leading cause of death for young adults age 18 to 24. And one out of every three failed marriages is directly attributed to alcoholism or drug abuse. Bishop Gooden Home was established in 1962 by five members of Alcoholics Anonymous and Bishop Robert Gooden (Episcopal) to help those who wanted out of the debilitating cycle of addiction. Since that time, an entire field has sprung up to help arrest the disease. Through all of the changes in the treatment field, The Gooden Center has remained a stalwart of quality care.
