Detox centers used to be places where you go to quit drugs and alcohol – cold turkey. The model worked, but in many cases fell short when it came to long-term recovery. In this week’s First Look we take a tour of the state’s newest detox facility in Harrington. We also examine the new approach state health leaders hope will help people beat their addictions for good.
