Lomax, HRDI is a national organization with 400 employees across the states of Illinois and Alabama.

HRDI continues to be at the forefront of addressing the many health issues affecting the communities it serves and provides over 40 programs in the areas of alcohol and substance abuse; youth prevention; family services; community health; case management; mental health and disabilities; alternative youth education; HIV/AIDS prevention and education; and gambling prevention and education.Select programs at HRDI are accredited by The Commission on Accreditation of Rehabilitation Facilities (CARF) and the Council on Accreditation (COA).
