Focus

This center treats substance use disorders and co-occurring mental health conditions. Your treatment plan addresses each condition at once with personalized, compassionate care for comprehensive healing.

Located in West Charlotte, this long-term residential program serves adult women in recovery, offering a structured, faith-based environment focused on sobriety and personal growth. Over the course of 120 days, residents engage in daily routines that include group and individual counseling, life skills education, and spiritual reflection. A core part of the program is its ability to serve mothers with children ages 5–11, who live on-site and receive their own therapeutic support. This family-centered care includes clinical services for children that address the emotional effects of addiction and promote healing alongside their mothers. By allowing families to stay together, the program supports recovery without separation, helping preserve the parent-child connection as both begin to rebuild stability and trust. Residents follow a steady routine of therapy, educational groups, and peer support. The program maintains a healthy, substance-free environment, and does not allow tobacco or vaping. The structure helps women stay focused and actively involved in their treatment.
