Project Rehab Earns Top Spot

Results of a new survey reveal that people are more comfortable recommending Project Rehab over any other provider.  The biennial research project, conducted through Grand Valley State University, surveyed over 400 households in the greater Grand Rapids area to gather perceptions about providers of residential treatment for substance use disorders.  When the survey was last conducted two years ago, Project Rehab was tied for first place in the same recommendation category.  The research also indicated that Project Rehab's top of mind awareness increased by 3% and overall name recognition improved by 5%.

Project Rehab is part of Proaction Behavioral Health Alliance, which also includes Life Guidance Services, Employee Assistance Center, and Community Treatment Centers. 

"We are very pleased that that more people are aware of our mission," said Tina Dee, Director of Community Relations at Proaction Behavioral Health Alliance.  "Our hope is that this increased awareness also means that more people are aware that substance use disorders are a treatable health issue.  Increasing this understanding will help reduce the stigma that often becomes an obstacle for people who need treatment."

Project Rehab was a pioneer in the treatment industry when it was founded in 1968.  For more information, visit www.ProjectRehab.org.
