About us
The Armstrong County Council on Alcohol and Other Drugs is a treatment center in Kittanning, Pennsylvania, that is part of the ARC Manor network. People of all ages can get full care at this facility, which focuses on both residential inpatient programs and intense outpatient services to help people recover from drug use disorders and mental health conditions that happen at the same time.
The residential inpatient program for adults provides an organized setting with 12-step meetings, such as Alcoholics Anonymous (AA) and Narcotics Anonymous (NA), as well as Medication-Assisted Treatment (MAT) and training in life skills. These programs are meant to help people get better and rebuild their lives over time. The center also provides intensive outpatient services, such as dual diagnosis care for people with two or more disorders that happen at the same time, as well as a mix of one-on-one and group counseling sessions. These sessions happen three times a week, in the morning or evening, so they can fit into a variety of schedules and responsibilities.
The Armstrong County Council on Alcohol and Other Drugs also offers specialized care for gambling addiction, understanding that people with behavioral addictions have different needs. The center is dedicated to providing high-quality, evidence-based care in a caring and helpful setting. It is accredited by the Substance Abuse and Mental Health Services Administration (SAMHSA).

We understand that choosing an addiction treatment center can be overwhelming, especially with so many options, promises, and marketing messages. Thatโs why weโve developed a clear, standardized rating system designed to cut through the noise and highlight what truly matters: safety, quality of care, and transparency. Our goal is to give individuals and families the information they need to make confident, informed decisions during a critical time.
In this guide, we explain exactly how we rate treatment centersโfrom accreditation and staff credentials to therapy options, facility environment, and family involvement. Youโll see how we assign scores, award badges, and update listings to ensure accuracy and fairness. Most importantly, our system focuses on elevating centers that prioritize ethical, evidence-based care, not just those with the best marketing. This way, you can trust that the ratings you see reflect meaningful standards that help you find the right fit for lasting recovery.
