The center helps adults and justice-involved individuals recover from drug and alcohol addiction. They offer outpatient, intensive outpatient, residential, and recovery housing programs. The center also treats co-occurring mental health issues like depression and trauma. Their peer-led support and gender-specific programs give people a safe, structured space to begin healing and rebuild their lives. Their programs use evidence-based therapies like cognitive behavioral therapy (CBT), motivational enhancement therapy (MET), and the Seeking Safety model for trauma. Clients follow a recovery plan that includes relapse prevention, skill-building, and support groups like Wellness Recovery Action Planning (WRAP). Each person works with a counselor to set goals and build the tools needed to stay healthy and drug-free. Residents live in short-term, gender-inclusive recovery housing with daily routines and responsibilities. Meals, group exercise, creative writing, and peer support help clients stay engaged. While rooms and amenities aren't detailed, the environment is structured and supportive. Clients can continue outpatient care after moving out to stay on track with recovery.
