Synopsis

The Minnesota Model of chemical dependency treatment is a unique blend of behavioral science principles and the philosophy of Alcoholics Anonymous that Hazelden has embraced and adapted over many years.

Hazelden President Jerry Spicer takes an inside look at the model -- how it began, how it successfully combines professional assistance with self-initiative and a mutual care community, and what is in store for the future.
