For over 37 years, Tri-County Human Services, Inc. has provided science-based, successful and award winning Substance Abuse and Mental Health Services in Highlands, Hardee and Polk Counties, and Dual Diagnosis Treatment for the entire State of Florida. Our innovative and life-changing programs in the jails of all three counties, Jail Alternative to Substance Abuse, JASA, are saving countless lives, while reducing the rate of recidivism and realizing an eight to one return on invested dollars to the communities it serves! The women's programs, RASUW for pregnant and post-partum substance abusers, and The AGAPE Half-Way House, have made it possible for 80% of the children born to mother's in the programs to be born drug free. The Florida Center for Dual Diagnosis provides treatment for persons suffering from mental health and substance abuse issues simultaneously. Prevention Programs in local area schools target at-risk students to keep them from developing serious addictions and other social problems as a result. Outpatient, including Intensive Outpatient Programs, provide substance abuse and mental health treatment to adolescents and adults on a sliding scale, making such care affordable to many without major insurance coverage. However, we do accept most major insurances, including Medicaid and Medicare for approved treatment.
