McGovern Residential Treatment
The Volunteers of America Texas - McGovern Philosophy
We believe that everyone deserves the chance to live a life free of alcohol and drugs. That is why at McGovern Campus, we strive to provide the best care available, including cutting-edge treatment techniques, experienced and caring staff; and a treatment approach that looks at the whole woman, not just her addiction.
