Dec. 20, 2018 – In addition to providing treatment to tens of thousands of individuals struggling from substance abuse issues, AAC operates websites that provide directories of treatment centers and information about the disease of addiction, such as rehabs.com and recovery.org. AAC’s online directories include more than 1,500 listings for independent treatment centers and those listings have led to more than 1.8 million calls to non-AAC treatment providers by people searching for help. YPR will provide expertise on how young individuals seek and access treatment through online resources and will recommend best practices to adopt. The partnership also comes at a vital time, as recent data has found that approximately one out of every six young adults between the ages of 18 and 25 has battled a substance use disorder.
“With Young People In Recovery as our partner, American Addiction Centers is even better positioned to help those seeking treatment options online find the help they need,” said Stephen Ebbett, chief digital and marketing officer of American Addiction Centers. “We know that a majority of people begin their search for help online. That’s especially true for the younger generation of digital natives. Our partnership with YPR will ensure we are always innovating to stay ahead of the curve and make sure patients can easily find treatment that’s right for them.”
