We Are Saving Lives And Making A Difference

It's fair to say that the rural northwest corner of Kansas is a "treatment desert," with few options for individuals seeking help to change addictive behaviors. One bright spot is in Colby, home of High Point Advocacy & Resource Center. They offer a wide range of services, including counseling, family support services, and peer mentoring.

They also describe the evolution of High Point Advocacy into an agency that uses evidence-based services, advocacy, and human connection to save lives.
