Prevention and early intervention are equally important as treatment, with agency plans including goals that focus on these areas. Community support and acceptance are critical to the success of Pineland’s mission, and the organization communicates to area citizens the resources needed, the achievements of the agency and those it serves, and information aimed at reducing stigma and increasing public knowledge.
