Confronting the Challenges of Alcohol, Tobacco, & Other Drugs
Alcohol kills on average 95,000 Americans every year. Tobacco related deaths average 480,000 per year. Once again, meth is back on the scene in full force and taking over US cities.

Thank You to our Summit Sponsors
BHG’S Patient-Centered Treatment program uses a two-pronged approach to address the medical and behavioral aspects of Opioid Addiction. This Medication Assisted treatment(MAT) uses drugs such as Methadone and Buprenorphine to address a patient’s physical dependence on Opioids, and team based behavioral counseling to address a patient’s psychological dependence. Our mission is to build the best-in-class network of Opioid treatment facilities by producing superior patient outcomes. We will accomplish this goal by providing each person who enters our program with a medically based treatment experience, in accordance with our governing bodies, which rehabilitates those aspects of the person which are suffering; builds upon the strengths of that person; protects that person’s rights to privacy, respect, and dignity; and assists in the development of a better quality of life. In doing so, we will improve the lives and communities of those we touch and serve.
Grace House provides a full continuum of gender specific, long term residential and outpatient treatment services. We serve all women whose lives have been negatively impacted by alcohol and/or illicit drug use, and who may have a co‐occurring mental or behavioral health conditions.
