Their Gaylord campus offers a focused four-week residential program for women struggling with alcohol or drug addiction, including opioids. BRH also provides outpatient and outreach services for both men and women, including medication-assisted treatment (MAT) to support long-term recovery. In the residential programs, BRH uses the evidence-based Living in Balance curriculum, which includes daily group sessions and relapse prevention classes. Clients receive individual therapy, work through trauma and life skills, and develop personalized recovery plans.
