Substance abuse affects an estimated 25 million Americans.
In terms of people who are affected indirectly such as families of abusers and those injured or killed by intoxicated drivers, an additional 40 million people are affected. The monetary cost to society and the economy because of reduced
productivity, property damage, accidents, and health care
are astounding. Alcoholism is a progressive disease and afflicts 10 million adults and 3 million children. An estimated
12.5 million Americans are addicted to other drugs such as
sedative-hypnotics or barbiturates, opiates, sedatives, hallucinogens and psych stimulants.
There are many symptoms and warning signs of substance
abuse including: using the substance on a regular basis
(daily, weekends or in binges), tolerance for the substance,
failed attempts to stop using the substance, physical and/or
psychological dependence, withdrawal symptoms (delirium
tremens, trembling, hallucinations, sweating and high blood
pressure), and in some cases dementia.
The specific causes of substance abuse are unclear, though
they seem to be a combination of hereditary, environmental
and social factors.
Treatment of substance abuse is geared towards abstinence
and includes a variety of therapies. Psychotherapy aids patients in understanding behavior and motivations. It also
helps with developing self-esteem and coping skills. Selfhelp groups such as Alcoholics Anonymous are very effective in helping the patient establish a support network. In
some cases medications such as disulfiram (Antabuse) or
methadone may be used with some success.
To members of Archway's Community:
The interview process of the next Executive Director keeps
moving along. We have now had second interviews with two
of the candidates, with a third candidate being interviewed
on Monday 7/28.
The transition team appreciates the time and effort folks are
giving to this process. You are making a difference.
We look forward to reading the forum feedback from people
who use services, as well as feedback from staff and from
Lou himself.
All of this feedback will help inform our deliberation. The
process should come to conclusion in the next couple of
weeks, with the announcement of the next Executive
Director soon after.
We are nearly done with this very important hire. We have
all worked hard to ensure that this is the best person to lead
Archway in this next chapter of its history.
Thank you again.
Sincerely,
Kurt Hoffman, Board President and
Chair of the Transition Committee
FABULOUS FRIDAYS Are Back!

Archway Station’s Complaint Process
Before Using the Complaint Procedure
Remember, many times things can be worked out if people just talk things out. If you really think
someone’s done you wrong, try to tell the person what you’re feeling. It’s important to do that
respectfully. It’s important to be open, honest, and adult-to-adult. A beginning conversation might
go something like this, “When you did ____, it made me feel ____.” Sometimes it helps to
practice what you’re going to say. Try it!
Complaint Process

It’s meant to be quick and EASY

No matter what you complain about, no one will hold it against you.

Forms are posted throughout the agency

Ask anyone to help support you

The BEST way to resolve an issue is try & talk directly with the person to work things out

If that’s not possible, talk to your TEAM LEADER

The Compliance Officer will review the complaint and try to resolve things if that
becomes necessary

If necessary, Executive Director gets INVOLVED

The Board’s Review Committee makes FINAL decision
If you have any questions about this process, contact
Archway’s Compliance Officer at 777-3208 Ext.104

Archway operates with public funds and with money donated
from individuals. The agency has an ethical obligation to
ensure that the money is spent wisely. But even more
importantly, the agency needs to ensure that the money is
spent openly and honestly, in the best interest of the agency
and the people it serves.
If you witness anything that falls short of this goal,
please report it. It’s real easy. Call:
301-777-1700 Extension 444
No one will answer, but you can leave a message. The
messages are checked each week (If it can’t wait, you can
call Board President Kurt Hoffman at 301-784-5113 or
Executive Director Lou Van Hollen at 301-777-1700 Ext
105). Please leave your name and telephone number so we
can recontact you while we investigate. As the
whistleblower, no action will be taken against you for making
a report in good faith.
Thanks!
