I would contact them to know what kind of services they offer


Explanation:
and then I would have a better idea as to where to put them. "Shawnee": a member of a Native American people which lived in the central Ohio valley as hunters and farmers, until the US government moved them to Oklahoma, where they now number about 2000 (Dictionary of English Language and Culture-Longman). Try to find out what kind of recovery service is the one they offer and to whom. Good luck!

About Prevention And Recovery Services

Prevention and Recovery Services was incorporated in 1965 under the name of the National Council on Alcoholism, Topeka Division. In July of 1993, the Board of Directors voted to change our name to Shawnee Regional Prevention and Recovery Services. Our new name is more descriptive of our mission for the 90's [shortened to Prevention and Recovery Services (PARS) for easier recognition].


PARS continues to serve Shawnee County as one of the thirteen Regional Prevention Centers in the state whose mission is to work with our community to reduce risk factors and strengthen protective factors that influence alcohol and drug abuse.


Our Mission
To enhance community wellness by providing prevention, intervention, education, counseling and referrals; and to assist in developing partnerships that empower individuals and communities to increase protective factors and reduce risk factors related to substance abuse and other unhealthy behaviors.


Our Vision
PARS is committed to helping make our community a place where people of all ages are safe, connected with others, and supported by a network of concerned citizens who share the responsibility for nurturing educating and creating an environment for all people to be free from the effects of alcohol, tobacco and other drugs.
