Founded in 1969, Spectrum Health Systems, Inc. is a private, non-profit organization dedicated to improving the lives of individuals impacted by addiction and/or mental health disorders. Spectrum’s Correctional Treatment Division was established in 1993 to provide specialized, person-centered, trauma-informed treatment to individuals with a history of substance use and criminal behavior.

Over the years, Spectrum has partnered with correctional agencies throughout the country to deliver a broad range of substance use treatment and recidivism reduction programs to justice-involved individuals within prisons, jails, and community-based settings. We appreciate the unique management approach needed to support operations both near and far, having operated multi-state programs for more than twenty-nine years. Spectrum regularly pursues new program development opportunities across the country and welcomes inquiries from interested parties seeking effective treatment solutions.

“The organization has a well-defined set of values, including compassion, service excellence, integrity, optimal care, creativity, positive workplace and fiscal responsibility, that is reiterated throughout all levels of programming.”

“I entered Spectrum’s detox at the lowest point in my life. While I was there, I took a tour of the residential program. I decided to try it because I did not want to go back to my old way of life. Now I’m in recovery, working and making plans for my future – something I never dreamed possible.”

“The Correctional Recovery Academy model provides a holistic approach to treating addictions and associated behaviors. All aspects of living without substances are addressed, practiced and modeled.”
