About Company:
TADISO, INCORPORATED
HISTORICAL AND GENERAL INFORMATION
58 YEARS (1968 – 2026)
The program was conceived and implemented by the African American citizens of Manchester responding to the urgent need and desire to save, and hopefully, to better their community.
Tadiso started in August 1968 with two physicians, Dr. Charles Burk and Marshall Johnson and two staff members Bobby Wiles and Ronnie Barfield, volunteering their services until funds were secured from the State of Pennsylvania, which regards drug addiction as a mental health problem. The synthetic narcotic methadone did not become an official part of the program until June 1969.
Two hospitals, Allegheny General and St. John’s General, offered 14 beds to the center’s patients. The youngest person was a 14-year old with a three-year habit behind him. [ EBONY Magazine, November 1970, Johnson Publication – “The Methadone Method”]
