"We moved from a location that only had one group room to now having three."Northpoint serves adults with substance use disorders and co-occurring mental health conditions. The organization also offers adolescent treatment through its youth program.The expansion comes as addiction continues to impact communities across Nebraska. According to CDC data, 155 Nebraskans died from drug overdoses in 2024. In Lincoln, the Lincoln-Lancaster County Health Department reported 157 overdoses in 2023, including 39 fatal overdoses.Hartmann said Northpoint's goal is to provide treatment quickly when people are ready to seek help. The organization offers multiple levels of care, including intensive outpatient and partial hospitalization programs, as well as virtual treatment options for those facing transportation or scheduling barriers."What I like about Northpoint is we don't have waitlists on purpose," Hartmann said. "If the need exists, we will keep growing to meet that."Northpoint leaders said they plan to continue expanding services as demand grows. The program serves adults 18 and older and adolescents ages 12 to 17, with assessments typically available within 24 to 48 hours.</div></body>
