Our services available are:

  • Structured Outpatient Program - helps individuals maintain abstinence, learn about the addictive disease process, utilize 12-Step recovery resources and tools, develop new abstinence-based skills and behaviors, and establish an effective program of recovery.  Targeted groups, such as the "Women in Recovery" group, address unique concerns.  Family member and/or significant others are encouraged to become involved.
