DACCO RECEIVES 1ST PLACE HONORS
(TAMPA,
FLORIDA - 6/30/04) – DACCO received
notification this week that they won 1st place for the Best Treatment
Program in Florida for the Women’s Co-occurring
Residential Program from the Florida Alcohol and Drug Addiction Association.
The award will be presented at the association’s annual conference
in Orlando in August.
“DACCO has been the primary provider our Adult Diversion Pre-Trial
Intervention Program since we began in 1992,” Gail Holly, 13th
Judicial Circuit Drug Court Coordinator, expressed, “and we always
receive positive feedback from our client exit interviews rating their
treatment program.”
These particular clients must come to terms with the painful reality
of having both a substance disorder and a mental illness, wanting neither
one, yet having to build a new life that involves recovery for both. “They
have been an integral part of our drug court process.,” stated Judge
Jack Espinosa.
