About JEM Treatment
Serving Waukegan since 2008.
JEM Treatment, Inc. is an outpatient center for the treatment of opioid use disorder. We provide guidance, medication, and counseling to adults ready to take back their lives — without judgment.
Our purpose
A safe, confidential place to change.
Our purpose is to provide comprehensive treatment and relapse prevention as individuals learn to make healthy lifestyle changes. Our mission is to offer a safe, holistic learning environment for individual clients, professionals, and the community at large.
We know that not all forms of treatment are equally effective, and no single treatment is right for everyone — so our program is built to give patients a confidential, non-judgmental environment where their effort to improve is fostered and nurtured, every day.
