About Good Road Recovery

Set on a sprawling green campus, Good Road Recovery Center is a state-licensed substance use disorder treatment program, owned and operated by the Three Affiliated Tribes; The Mandan, Hidatsa and Arikara Nation. Only clients members of the MHA are able to attend the specialized program.
Good Road Recovery maintains that alcoholism and substance dependency is a disease that impacts the physical, emotional, and intellectual aspects of clients and their families, as well as the dynamics of the entire Tribe. Good Road Recovery believes that through the higher power of the Great Spirit and reconnecting clients with tradition and culture, clients have a higher chance of relapse prevention. They achieve this through providing non-judgemental education, a return to cultural teachings, and prevention activities with families and relatives.
Good Road Recovery Center offers residential and outpatient treatment in addition to intensive case management. Treatment is individualized with residential, outpatient, and intensive case management. Treatment is individualized and has no minimum length and lasts up to 18-24 months.
Tucked away on a private rural campus, Good Road Recovery boasts a renovated and spacious treatment facility with a movie theater, indoor and outdoor lounge areas, large shared bathrooms, and walking paths. Clients can enjoy mountain views nearby or take walks on their expansive green campus.

Evidence-Based Context: According to SAMHSA's National Survey on Drug Use and Health (2023), approximately 48.7 million Americans aged 12 or older had a substance use disorder in the past year. The National Institute on Drug Abuse (NIDA) emphasizes that treatment programs combining behavioral therapy with medication-assisted approaches show the highest rates of sustained recovery. Facilities like Good Road Recovery provide structured pathways to evidence-based care. Sources: SAMHSA NSDUH 2023, NIDA Principles of Drug Addiction Treatment (4th Ed.)

Understanding Your Treatment Options

Choosing the right treatment facility is one of the most important decisions in the recovery journey. Research published by the National Institute on Drug Abuse (NIDA) shows that treatment duration, therapeutic approach, and aftercare planning are the three strongest predictors of long-term sobriety.

Good Road Recovery offers 3 distinct levels of care, allowing patients to step through treatment intensities as they progress. This continuum-of-care model — moving from higher to lower intensity — is recommended by SAMHSA as the gold standard for addiction treatment.

Under the Mental Health Parity and Addiction Equity Act, most commercial insurance plans are required to cover substance abuse treatment. Good Road Recovery works with 24 insurance providers. Call (833) 567-5838 to verify your specific coverage and learn about out-of-pocket costs before admission.
