All of the services provided by The Tri-State Advocacy Project are FREE of charge.
Treatment and care for trauma patients has changed drastically in the past two decades. As more patients survive catastrophic injuries, they now have a greater need for extended rehabilitation and home care, but unfortunately, the payment for this care has become more difficult to obtain. As advocates, we help the patient and family identify all sources of funding, to allow the patient to maximize their rehabilitation potential and live as independently as possible.

MISSION: To aid in the healing, recovery, and preventive treatment of Veterans by treating the WHOLE VETERAN and providing the most comprehensive, multidisciplinary care.
Your journey begins with a 3 day evaluation with a team of caregivers which includes licensed staff who are assigned to you for the duration of your time. You will receive a treatment plan that can be given to your own doctor or you may be eligible to enroll in the Center's Intensive Outpatient Program (IOP).
If you are eligible for the THREE-WEEK INTENSIVE OUTPATIENT
PROGRAM (IOP), our care team puts your treatment plan into action.
Through education, clinical care and access to specialized resources, this
program demonstrates the powerful ways physical, emotional, mental,
spiritual and social factors can directly affect your health and wellbeing.
