MERIT Resource Services is a long-standing addiction treatment provider in Kennewick, Washington, offering inpatient care for adults seeking a structured, residential recovery environment. Founded before 1990, it is one of only two facilities among nearby options that provide inpatient services, giving it a distinct role in the local treatment landscape.

The program draws on a 12-Step framework alongside motivational interviewing, and operates as a smoke-free facility with transportation support for people getting to and from care. It holds CARF accreditation, a distinction shared by just one other nearby facility, and accepts Aetna insurance, plans that benefits must still be verified for individual coverage.
