Structured Residential Programming in a Drug- and Gambling-Free Setting

This adult residential program is built for people who need a stable, 24-hour setting to address substance use and related mental health concerns. Treatment begins with a comprehensive assessment that helps clients identify physical, mental, and emotional needs, build motivation, and understand personal relapse dynamics. From there, clients participate in 50+ hours of weekly programming with trained clinical staff, combining group counseling, individual counseling, education, life-skills development, recreation and leisure activities, and discharge planning.

Care That Addresses Co-Occurring Needs, Including Trauma and Gambling

Services support clients with co-occurring mental health and substance use disorders, trauma-related concerns, and gambling disorder, along with needs like anger management. Treatment approaches include cognitive behavioral therapy (CBT), motivational interviewing, relapse prevention, contingency management, 12-step facilitation, and trauma-related counseling, with telehealth therapy available. The program supports clients who use medications for addiction treatment (MAT) when prescribed elsewhere and also provides medication support for mental health conditions, tobacco cessation counseling, and FDA-approved nicotine replacement options on its nicotine-free campus.

Step-Down Options That Help People Reenter Work and Home Life

Clients leaving primary residential treatment can transition to the program’s transitional housing level of care, where they take on more responsibility, hold jobs, and prepare to rejoin families and communities while continuing structured programming. Additional step-down options include intensive outpatient (IOP) with room and outpatient services, which allow clients to keep building recovery skills while living at home and staying connected to work, family, and daily responsibilities.

Practical Support and Justice-Involved Programming

This location pairs clinical treatment with support that can make follow-through more realistic after discharge. Case management and recovery support services connect clients to housing services, assistance with obtaining social services, transportation support, and ongoing recovery connections such as self-help groups and follow-up after discharge. The program also serves justice-involved clients through criminal justice-focused services, including OWI evaluations and jail-based programming, supporting people who need treatment that fits legal requirements alongside recovery goals.
