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.

This adult residential center helps people recover from substance use disorder by offering care that supports all areas of life. Treatment goes beyond addiction, with services that include mental health support, job training, housing assistance, and structured daily routines. The focus is on long-term success, so each person can leave feeling stable—sober, employed, housed, and ready to live a healthy, independent life. Substance use disorder often comes with mental health struggles, and the program is built to treat both together. Licensed therapists support adults dealing with conditions like depression, anxiety, trauma, and mood disorders. Along the way, individuals also work through guilt and shame, rebuild trust with loved ones, and strengthen their ability to manage emotions and relationships during recovery. Each day follows a steady rhythm of therapy, life skills, and connection. Adults take part in cooking, cleaning, and shared activities that build healthy habits. They can also earn a general educational development (GED) certificate and learn job skills while in treatment. With peer support, recreation, and structure, the program shows that recovery is not just possible—but full of purpose, growth, and stability.
