About our organization

Welcome to Crawford-Marion ADAMH

Alcohol, Drug Addiction and Mental Health

Our mission

The mission of the Crawford-Marion ADAMH Board, under local leadership, is to assure the availability of high quality alcohol, drug addiction and mental health services to all residents through planning (assessing needs and resources, and determining priorities); purchasing cost effective services to the extent resources are available; increasing public awareness; coordinating services; and evaluating those services.

The Substance Abuse and Mental Health Services Administration (SAMHSA) collects information on thousands of state-licensed providers who specialize in treating substance use disorders, addiction, and mental illness.
