Eagle Ridge Family Treatment Center - Guthrie, OK

Giving Wings to Dreams!

ERI's birth, in 1989, came from a deep desire to address many unmet social problems in order to dramatically improve the conditions and opportunities for children, families and communities. It grew out of a desire to take our understanding that substance use and behavioral health are overriding and primary conditions related to many of the social problems we now face.
