The The ADA Program was founded in 1986 by David J. H. Garvin MSW, LMSW, in Toledo Ohio, at Family Services of Northwest Ohio. In 1987 we brought the ADA Program to Ann Arbor, Michigan at Catholic Social Services of Washtenaw County.

In the early 1990's the ADA Program established its own curriculum and model of a 52+ weekly session program.

The ADA Program has endeavored to bring together a Staff with the most experience in the field of Batterer Intervention in the State of Michigan.
