When someone in Shawnee needs substance abuse treatment and doesn't have health insurance or the funds to pay for treatment in full, the Access to Recovery Voucher is possibly an option to consider. ATR is a federally-funded plan which provides the means for qualified people to access treatment programs and support including inpatient programs, regular outpatient, intensive outpatient, continuing care, counseling, life coaching and recovery support, skills building, vocational training, and transportation assistance. The ATR grant program allows individuals with vouchers to purchase rehabilitation and recovery support services for substance use disorders at the provider of their choice. To qualify for ATR clients must meet certain requirements, including: 1) must be 18 years or older, 2) have a history of substance abuse and addiction, 3) have a yearly income that is below 200% of the Federal poverty level, and 4) reside in the counties or jurisdictions that provide ATR.
Individuals interested in the Access to Recovery Voucher can consult with ATR Service Coordinators in their area. If someone's initial choice of treatment or facility isn't working out, they can work with their coordinator to locate one that best fits their needs and that accepts the ATR.
