History of Triumph Treatment Service

Triumph Treatment Services is a comprehensive non-profit 501 (c) (3) agency serving Yakima county with chemical dependency treatment, outpatient, residential, and housing services. It is multifaceted, providing a continuum of care for chemically dependent individuals and their families.


Founded in 1961 as a small outpatient alcoholism treatment center, the agency has, since then, added three residential chemical dependency treatment facilities: One 78-bed facility for men in Buena, Washington; a 32-bed facility for women in Yakima; and another 60-bed facility for women and their children in Kennewick. We currently have one outreach program. This is the Parent-Child Assistance Program (P-CAP) which utilizes seven para-professionals to seek out and support at-risk women and their children. This is a best practices model.


We have 134 units of various kinds of housing but all low-income, clean and sober, and case-managed. We serve individuals and families in both transitional and permanent housing. We also manage a short-term shelter for families. We have several contracts which incorporate outreach and intensive case management.


We purchased Roosevelt Place, a former nursing home, in 2003 This facility now houses Kids Inc, a large licensed child care center and women/children’s housing facility. There is also a commercial kitchen at this site, which serves the child care center and one of our residential programs with hot, home-style meals, along with offering some catering services to the community.


We are part of the National Institute of Drug Abuse (NIDA) Pacific Northwest Node which allows us to participate in research projects and selected clinical trials. We were chosen as a community partner because of our comprehensive programming, experience with research and our interest in transfer of research to practice.
