Our Purpose
Below are the principles we operate under at The Discovery Institute.
Discovery Institute
Purpose
Statement
Provide the highest quality clinical care through evidence-based treatment practices and innovative supportive strategies to improve and heal the lives of individuals suffering from substance use disorder. It’s our goal to lessen the adverse impact on families and society as a whole through providing a range of cutting-edge treatment modalities and individualized treatment plans for all of our clients and their families.
Vision and Philosophy
- To be a national leader in the addiction treatment community by restoring happiness and purpose into the lives of those suffering from the disease of substance use disorder. This includes individuals, families, and our community as a whole.
- It is the philosophy of Discovery Institute that an individual approach is imperative to the long-term growth and happiness of the individual, thereby requiring us to treat the “whole person” and every aspect of his/her behavior, belief system and lifestyle.
- The client is not a burden; the client is our priority. We treat our clients and staff with respect and honor their contributions. We invest in the continuing growth, development and nurturing of our staff and they must exemplify our Purpose, Principles, Vision and Philosophies inside and outside of our community
- Discovery Institute believes that treatment must effectively address both one’s medical, mental, and spiritual health. Most often, an individual’s path towards recovery is rooted in their struggles with relationships, family dynamics, social skills, and lack of mental health awareness. In our view, the goals of recovery are global – necessitating a total change in lifestyle that encompasses an individual’s re-evaluation of values, attitudes, behavior, and social activities.
