The goal of the Narconon program is
to resolve the problems of substance abuse, with their attendant
companions: crime, violence and the enormous costs in ruined
lives and broken families. Narconon drug rehabilitation centers
factually help substance abusers achieve new lives without drugs;
and, of course, the benefits go beyond individual addicts to
their families and communities. However, to really make a difference
in the current social chaos caused by drugs it is imperative
that the results of the Narconon program become widely available.
With this in mind, Narconon Arrowhead operates an international
training center which offers full training and apprenticeships.
Programs include training in the Narconon met hod
of drug-free withdrawal, detoxification and delivery of life
improvement courses as well as in the establishment and administration
of Narconon centers.
While staff of Narconon centers come from around the world to
train at Narconon Arrowhead, the training program is also open
to professionals from other organizations which wish to utilize
the Narconon method.
Gary Smith, Narconon Arrowhead Executive Director, says that
working in the drug treatment field without the necessary tools
and knowledge to address hard-core addiction can be a discouraging
proposition, and adds, “This is where Narconon Arrowhead
comes in. Training materials have been developed over the past
ten years which make it possible for anyone who really wants
to help drug and alcohol abusers to achieve excellent results.”
A key part of the training is working with recovering addicts
in order to get them successfully through each step of the program.
In that way, trainees gain hands-on experience in application.
They do not just study the materials relating to addiction and
its resolutions. Trainees also thoroughly learn how to apply
the materials to addicts, to help them through withdrawal, through
a full detoxification regime, and through the courses which
teach the former addicts how to deal with life situations without
again resorting to alcohol or drugs or destructive behavior.
It is a comprehensive approach that gets unprecedented results.

“I have personally
studied the actions of drugs on the body, particularly
the changes that occur to the central nervous system.
 I
have also received training in the Narconon program.
“The Narconon program is very special in its approach
to handling addiction. It is the only program in the world
that removes the toxic drug residues from the body. Cravings
for drugs are eliminated. The program next teaches necessary
life skills, handles associative and subjective drug memories
and, finally, develops within the individual a sense of
personal ethics whereby they can now function as a contributing
member of society.
“Training in the Narconon program is invaluable to
anyone who is truly interested in helping people achieve
drug-free lives.”
Marie Ceccini M.S.

Narconon Boston
“After my training as a Narconon professional,
I feel totally confident that  I
can help individuals get off drugs and get their lives
back together.
“I have realized that Narconon not only rehabilitates
people, bringing them back to their prior state before
they ever tried drugs, but it also gets people to achieve
levels of mental stability and happiness which they never
had before.”
