Drug and Alcohol Program 

Out-Patient (Licensed by the State)

The Bright Path Drug and Alcohol Out-Patient Program is licensed by the State of Georgia and is accredited by the Joint Commission.

While Bright Path’s primary focus is on mental health issues, the Out-Patient Drug and Alcohol program allows clients who have co-occurring addictive disorders to work toward remaining sober (i.e., clients registering for the out-patient Drug and Alcohol program must be sober and their primary diagnosis must be mental health).  

The mental health and addictive PHP and IOP sessions are separate and distinct from one another and provide therapists experienced in their individual fields.

Bright Path is not licensed to provide Detox or 24/7 supervision.
