Pierce County Alliance

The Pierce County Alliance is a private, non-profit, social service agency organized to deliver a wide range of services through innovative and cost-effective programs.

Originally incorporated in 1972 as "The Pierce County Drug Alliance" to coordinate local drug treatment services, the name was changed in 1981 to reflect a broader range of programs undertaken by the agency. As the Alliance expanded to better respond to community needs and the multi-faceted issues of substance abuse, mental health, and at-risk youth, it earned a reputation for innovation and organizational effectiveness. The Alliance currently operates several major programs, including drug and alcohol treatment for adults and adolescents, foster home licensing and support, family counseling, and mental health therapy.

In a recent initiative, the Alliance has undertaken an advanced approach to the treatment of alcohol, cocaine, and, in a special focus, methamphetamine. The agency has adopted the PROMETA Protocol, a medical procedure that augments the traditional 12-step, psychosocial therapy used for decades. Based on a 2006 pilot study, the Alliance has witnessed exceptional reductions in the cravings and anxieties normally associated with the addiction to these substances, resulting in exceptional improvements in treatment retention and outcomes. The Pierce County Alliance is now offering the PROMETA protocol to patients throughout Washington State.
