• Over 70% of Narconon Graduates remain stably drug-free. This compares to a 10%-20% success rate of traditional treatment programs.
  
  
• One of the primary reasons for the Narconon Programs success is that it doesn’t take the viewpoint of alcohol and drug addiction as a disease and the individual as a victim. Initially anyone using drugs did so to solve some type of problem in their life. To some degree, though perhaps uniformed or mis-lead, they choose to use the drug(s).
  
  
• The Narconon Program does more than address the three major barriers to recovery: cravings, depression and guilt. (See Healing Addicted Lives e-booklet) The Narconon program provides insight into why the individual started taking drugs in the first place and life skills courses designed to give the person the ability to be back in-charge of their life so they may maintain a life that is happy, productive and free from drugs.
