Project star provides substance use treatment, mental health services, and case management services to persons at increased risk of substance use and HIV.

The purpose of the program is to enhance and expand services for transitional aged youth (age 18 to 25) with sud/cod using a coordinated multi-system family approach for approximately 24 weeks of treatment. Project arch is a five year program. The purpose is to increase access to, expand, and enhance sud treatment and reentry services in an underserved, largely rural Alabama area that has higher than average rates of sud, incarceration, and other negative consequences.
