With 90% of those afflicted with addiction and alcoholism not able to survive their afflictions, and more deaths and disabilities each year from substance abuse rather than any other cause, it is of utmost importance to set up treatment systems and facilities that help break the vicious cycle of opiate addiction and alcoholism. These systems and facilities should also be able to instill the capacity in these unfortunate individuals to build new, healthy, and wholesome lives - free from addictions of all kinds. Such a goal motivated the founders of Peak Addiction Recovery Center, Mr. Michael J McKelvey and Dr. Charles Stephens to set up the Peak Addiction Recovery Center rehab facility. Both the founders had individual visions and saw the need for a residential alcoholism, substance and opiate addiction treatment facility in Colorado Springs. These founders bring certification though the American Society of Addiction Medicine as well as a strong clinical and administrative background in the addiction treatment field. Between the two, they have extensive experience in the field of addiction medicine as well as treatment facility operations and management of such an institution.
