Primary Focus
- Addiction Recovery Treatment
First established in 1964, the Jackson Area Council on Alcoholism and Drug Dependency, or JACOA, has grown from a single outpatient unit to offering a range of detox and substance abuse services from outpatient to residential treatment. Our staff is dedicated to meeting you where you’re at in the recovery process.
JACOA is a licensed substance abuse treatment program, offering evidenced-based treatment approaches and quality services. Whether you’re dealing with a long-term drug or alcohol problem or only have only been using for a couple months, the Jackson Area Council on Alcoholism and Drug Dependency can help you take back your life from the effects of addiction.
The effects of substance abuse affect different people in different ways. During the detox stage, one person may require round-the-clock care to make it through the program, while another person may only require ongoing counseling and emotional support. Receiving the level of support you most need is critical to breaking drug and alcohol abuse cycles in your daily life.
The Jackson Area Council on Alcoholism and Drug Dependency offers two detox program types -an inpatient program and an intensive outpatient program- with each program providing different levels of treatment support.
Inpatient program treatment options include:

As a general rule, the more intensive the program type the more strict the policies. Since JACOA’s outpatient programs allow clients to live at home for the duration of treatment, policy guidelines focus more so on program participation, personal conduct and accountability. As far as our inpatient program facility goes, policy guidelines include the following:
If you’ve had little to no success at trying to stop using drugs or alcohol on your own, Jackson Area Council on Alcoholism and Drug Dependency can provide the level of support you need to stop substance-using patterns in your daily life.

Program amenities offered by Jackson Area Council on Alcoholism and Drug Dependency work to address particular life issues that may aggravate drug abuse behaviors. Life issues may center around gender, past traumas or mental health issues, all of which can make it difficult to successfully complete the detox stage of recovery.
While not everyone will require these speciality services, having the option to participate in one or more of these programs can make a tremendous difference in your recovery if the need exists. Amenity services offered by JACOA include:
