About

About JFK Alcohol and Drug Abuse Trt Ctr

The Julian F. Keith Alcohol and Drug Abuse Treatment Center (JFK ADATC) is a state-operated residential substance use treatment facility located at 201 Tabernacle Road in Black Mountain, North Carolina, in the mountains east of Asheville. The facility is part of the North Carolina Department of Health and Human Services Division of State Operated Healthcare Facilities and serves western North Carolina and the broader Buncombe County region.

As a state-operated alcohol and drug abuse treatment center (ADATC), JFK provides structured residential substance use treatment for adults experiencing alcohol use disorder, substance use disorder, opioid use disorder, and co-occurring mental health and trauma concerns. Outpatient pathways supplement the core residential model. The center is documented as accredited by The Joint Commission and as operating a federally certified opioid treatment program.

The program serves a broad population: veterans, pregnant women, young adults, older adults, men and women, court-involved clients, people with HIV/AIDS, and deaf or hard-of-hearing clients. Trauma and dual-diagnosis presentations are addressed within the residential and outpatient programming, with cognitive behavioral therapy and medication-assisted treatment among the documented modalities.

North Carolina’s ADATCs are designed to be accessible to people across payer types, with documented payment options including Medicaid, Medicare, private insurance, TRICARE, self-pay, and state insurance. Prospective patients can call (828) 257-6200 to start an admissions conversation. SAMHSA’s record carries an ambiguous flag around detox specifics — patients needing acute withdrawal management should ask intake whether detoxification is delivered on-site or coordinated with a partner facility.
