New Directions Treatment Center is an agency of educators and health care professionals with a mission to provide needed human services to adults, youth, low- income people and minorities in Danville and surrounding communities.

Program Goals Our goal is to direct clients through a process of identifying thoughts and behaviors associated with their addictions and to help them move into recovery.
