Community Bridges Inc - Dodge Center

Meeting the Needs of Diverse Communities

Specialized support is available for women with children and for individuals referred through the criminal justice system, as well as those needing care that integrates physical health, psychiatric treatment, and recovery support. Language access is also a priority, with services in Spanish and sign language to ensure more people can participate fully in treatment.

Support Systems for Different Personal Beliefs

Clinical services include individual and group counseling, and integrated treatment for co-occurring disorders. Expressive groups such as art therapy and anger management provide alternative ways to work through challenges, while relapse prevention and life skills workshops help prepare clients for the responsibilities of daily life. The program also introduces multiple pathways to recovery support, offering 12-Step, SMART Recovery groups, and talking circle healing so clients can find an approach that fits their own beliefs and recovery needs.

Hands-On Support From Peers Who’ve Been There

Clients engage in peer mentoring and group support that create a sense of belonging and reduce the isolation often associated with addiction. Alumni networks and recovery groups help extend this community into long-term support systems. By combining clinical care with opportunities for meaningful connection, the center provides an environment where individuals can rebuild not only their health but also their sense of identity and belonging.
