About Us

Our Mission:

MATR, Inc., a private, non-profit corporation, strives to remain appraised of the
most current and effective methods of holistic treatment available. It is MATR’s
intent to provide the best professionally, clinically, and morally sound treatment
possible to assist troubled clients suffering from drug and alcohol addiction and
their families in improving their quality of life.

MATR, Inc. strives to maintain a sense of individuality with each client and staff
member to facilitate an atmosphere that embraces a healing environment, in
which each person is taught to honor self and others, a milieu where expectations
for change and growth weave a tapestry of health from without to within.

MATR’s philosophy dictates that each client is considered to have the potential to
savor heightened joy, confident self worth, and undeniable self control. MATR
seeks to provide clients with enhanced ability to apply mastered skills of self-
sufficiency, emotional well being, and sufficient social expertise to provide
expanded opportunity to experience security through his/her own self
actualization. MATR works with local communities and families in pursuing
resolution to the vital concerns experienced in communities where MATR clients
reside. We understand the challenges associated in overcoming drug and alcohol
addiction and our track record of successful treatment speaks for itself.

MATR’s mission is holistic change.

A Brief History of MATR:

MATR was founded in June of 1993 by Linda Dimmick and Janey Marvin. MATR
began first with Youth Corrections and Division of Child and Family Services. In
1997, MATR opened it's first adult facility , obtaining state licensure for both
mental health and substance abuse. Licenses have varied some over the years,
sometime including domestic violence and treatment for youth, and sometimes
focusing only on services for the abuse of substances. Currently, MATR's
services are being provided at the "old Sanpete Valley Hospital" in Mt. Pleasant,
Utah.

From MATR's inception, materials developed by LANDJ Media have been a
major focus in our curriculum. LANDJ Media was founded by Janey Marvin and
Linda Dimmick, who also founded MATR. These materials are now being made
available to the public through workshops and media such as DVD's, CD's and
the written word. If you are interested in sponsoring a workshop or obtaining any
of these materials, please contact Janey Marvin at (435) 462-2781 or cell
