CORE BELIEFS
We believe substance abuse is a preventable, treatable family disease. We believe in access to a full spectrum of quality substance abuse services for
all Texans. We believe that the prevention of substance use in youth and substance abuse in
adults and the treatment of chemical dependency make positive and measurable contributions to society.
We believe there is value in community based prevention and treatment
services. We believe that through our combined efforts we provide diligent leadership and
effective advocacy for our field. We believe education and information that is based on the shared experience
and expertise of our members gives consistent and visionary direction. We believe the collective resources of the Association enhance individual
member organizations.
