Operation PAR

About Us

Since 1970, we've been at the forefront of providing top-notch mental health services and substance use disorder treatment, helping those struggling with substance use disorder. Whether you're a child, an adult, or part of a family affected by these issues, we're here to support you every step of the way.

Operation PAR, Inc. began after Shirley Coletti discovered that her teenage daughter was experimenting with drugs and had become addicted. Worried and unsure of where to turn for help, Mrs. Coletti and her community partners founded Operation Parental Awareness and Responsibility (PAR) to provide much-needed support to families like theirs. Today, with over 400 dedicated employees, Operation PAR offers comprehensive addiction and mental health services across various locations in Pinellas, Pasco, Hernando, Manatee, Sarasota, Charlotte, Citrus, and Lee counties.
