Adolescents - Georgetown, TennesseeAs a parent or caregiver the thought of enrolling your child into a drug rehabilitation facility can be overwhelming and frightening. Unfortunately, just like adults, adolescents become addicted to drugs and alcohol and need professional treatment in order to stop using. Due to their young age it is not an option for them to attend an adult drug treatment facility.
