The name Odyssey reflects our philosophy that dealing with alcohol and drug issues requires a "journey of growth." This journey is unique for each individual.

We believe individuals have the right and capacity to determine how they would like to change, the strength to make these changes, and the right to decide who to involve in their change process.

We believe that substance abuse is part of a complex interaction between biological, psychological, spiritual and social factors unique to each person.

• Odyssey is a program that provides services to youth and their families who are affected by substance abuse.
