Where we serve

TASC reaches nearly 30,000 individuals each year throughout Illinois, and we offer training and consultation services nationally and internationally.

What we know

Thousands of people with substance abuse and/or mental health problems are mandated to TASC by criminal justice, corrections, and child welfare authorities.

Research shows that TASC clients are more successful, in terms of reduced drug use and crime, than their counterparts who don’t go through TASC.
