Full Continuum Of Care With Step-Down Housing Support

Recovery Works offers a clear path through treatment, starting with medically supervised detox and 24/7 residential care, then stepping down to partial hospitalization (PHP), intensive outpatient (IOP), and outpatient services. PHP may be paired with housing, which can help clients stay in a structured setting while transitioning back toward day-to-day responsibilities.

Stabilization Support, Including Methamphetamine Withdrawal Management

Alongside detox for multiple substances, this location offers methamphetamine withdrawal management in a supervised inpatient setting. Medical monitoring and support can help clients get through early withdrawal more safely and prepare for the next phase of treatment, especially when symptoms affect both physical health and mental well-being.

Integrated Therapy For Substance Use And Co-Occurring Needs

Treatment is designed to address substance use and co-occurring mental health concerns together. Services may include individual, group, and family counseling, plus structured support such as trauma-related counseling, anger management, relapse prevention, and life skills development. Clients can also access both 12-step and secular recovery meetings as part of ongoing support.

Medications For Addiction Treatment And Practical Access Supports

Services include medications for addiction treatment (MAT) for opioid and alcohol use disorders, including buprenorphine- and naltrexone-based options, and they accept clients who are using MAT prescribed elsewhere. To reduce barriers to care, the program offers transportation assistance and case management, including help connecting to housing services and social services. Discharge planning, overdose education with naloxone, and follow-up after discharge are available to support continued recovery after residential care.
