These services provide outpatient treatment for persons, aged 18 and
older with alcohol and/or other substance abuse problems.
The programs are built on a multilevel model creating
opportunities to achieve and recognize specific goals as clients
move through various levels of recovery. Clients are encouraged by
staff and peers, as program "members", to become actively
involved in the treatment process. This experience allows each
person to break the isolation and become members of the larger
external community. In order to accomplish this, the program
utilizes a wide range of planned structured activities which
emphasize appropriate interdependence among clients and staff as an
integral part of the recovery process.
Some of the programs pay particular attention to health needs and
employ a nurse and medical director. Length of stay is dependent on
individual need.
