Safe Space to Stabilize Following A Crisis

The medically monitored detox unit includes 24-hour nursing and medical oversight to help men safely manage withdrawal from drugs or alcohol. Daily therapeutic groups and discharge planning support a smooth transition into continued care. The Magnolia Ridge residential program combines medical supervision, individual and group therapy, family education, and case management focused on recovery and long-term stability.

Support with Justice System and Community Reintegration

Behavioral health liaisons and recovery court programs assist men involved with the justice system or re-entering the community. Staff coordinate with courts, law enforcement, and families to ensure treatment access and continuity of care. Clients are connected with employment counseling, recovery coaching, and housing assistance to support life after treatment. These services help men build stability and accountability as they return to work and community life.

Access to Care When You Need It

Transportation assistance helps clients reach appointments and continue care. A 24/7 walk-in center and crisis stabilization unit offer immediate evaluation and placement into detox or residential treatment. No one is denied care due to inability to pay.
