Gender-Specific Residential Care in a Structured Setting

The facility provides gender-specific residential treatment programs for adult men and women facing substance use disorders and co-occurring mental health challenges. This nonprofit facility delivers care that addresses the distinct recovery needs of each group, including a specialized track for veterans. Programs integrate strength-based, trauma-informed treatment with peer support and structured living.

12-Step Integration and Peer Mentorship

Twelve-step principles are woven into the recovery model. The facility offers on-site Alcoholics Anonymous (AA) and Narcotics Anonymous (NA) meetings and introduces clients to the structure and community of 12-step recovery. Participation in these programs helps clients build accountability and a shared language of healing. Peer support is also a core element, with mentoring opportunities and group therapy designed to foster trust and long-term motivation.

Dual Diagnosis and Veteran-Focused Treatment

For individuals managing both addiction and mental health conditions such as post-traumatic stress disorder (PTSD), depression, or anxiety, the program offers integrated treatment grounded in evidence-based practices. Specialized care is available for veterans, with programming tailored to military-related challenges, including trauma, reintegration stress, and grief, with an emphasis on resilience and community.

Support for Long-Term Stability

Life after residential care is supported through employment training and education services. These components are designed to help clients develop practical skills and confidence for reentering the workforce or pursuing further education. The facility also connects alumni to ongoing recovery networks and volunteer opportunities. Help finding housing arrangements is offered as needed.
