Community-based outpatient program
The LIFE Program provides outpatient services for substance use and co-occurring mental health conditions. This gives clients an opportunity to get the treatment they need while continuing to live at home. As this program is part of the broader Village South/WestCare network, clients also have access to a range of mental health services. These may include prevention programs, crisis services, and family support.
Integrated treatment for substance use and co-occurring mental health conditions
Various evidence-based approaches are used in treatment, including CBT, motivational interviewing, and trauma-related counseling. Relapse prevention, contingency management, and 12-Step facilitation are also available to help clients meet their individual needs. When clinically indicated, medications for addiction treatment (MAT) are offered alongside counseling.
Strong recovery support to help build stability
Support extends beyond counseling. Case management, employment counseling and training, aftercare planning, and assistance accessing social services help clients address practical barriers to recovery. The program also provides peer mentoring, discharge planning, and naloxone/overdose education.
Culturally responsive care for a broad population
The LIFE Program has experience serving a wide range of populations, including adolescents, young adults, older adults, veterans, active-duty military members, military families, pregnant and postpartum women, and clients living with HIV/AIDS. Bilingual services improve accessibility and are available in Spanish, Creole, French, and American Sign Language (ASL) for clients who are deaf or hard of hearing.
