Community Bridges Inc - Womens Transition Project

Women’s Residential Treatment in a Mountain Setting

The program provides residential treatment for women, including pregnant and postpartum clients, in a quiet hillside area of Bisbee, Arizona. The campus includes outdoor seating, gardens, and natural surroundings. This environment helps clients step away from daily pressures, focus on immediate safety, and begin building new routines. The program supports women seeking structure, stability, and a women-only setting as they begin working toward recovery.

Integrated Support for Substance Use and Mental Health

The program offers 24-hour care for women experiencing substance use concerns, often alongside mental health needs. Each client receives comprehensive assessments, including mental health evaluations, substance use screenings, and full medical histories. Treatment includes individual and group counseling, cognitive behavioral therapy (CBT), and relapse-prevention groups. Clients also have access to urgent psychiatric assessment and suicide prevention services, providing support during moments of heightened distress.

Medications and Physical Health Care On Site

The facility offers medications for addiction treatment (MAT) as needed, alongside medications for mental health conditions. Physical health services include metabolic monitoring and access to integrated primary care. These supports allow clients to manage physical health concerns without leaving the program, reducing disruptions in care. By addressing medical, psychiatric, and substance use needs together, clients receive a more consistent and stable treatment experience.

Trauma, Chronic Pain, and Complex Life Experiences

The Women’s Transition Project serves clients with diverse life experiences, including trauma, intimate partner violence, chronic pain, and justice involvement. The program incorporates trauma-informed practices throughout treatment. Clients can participate in anger management classes, expressive art groups, recreation and recovery activities, and traditional healing and talking circles. Introductions to both 12-step and SMART Recovery pathways are offered, allowing women to choose what works best for them.

Building Skills, Employment, and Community Stability

Clients participate in groups focused on recovery planning, communication, and daily living skills. Social skills development, mentoring, and peer support help clients rebuild confidence and community connections. Employment counseling or training is available for those preparing to return to work or explore new opportunities. Case management supports clients with housing navigation, social service applications, and transportation assistance. Sign language services ensure accessibility for deaf and hard-of-hearing clients.
