About the Program: We believe recovery starts from within, and that our job is to do whatever it takes to provide the support needed to our clients on their recovery journey. Our 16-bed secure facility includes a full staff of nurses, peer recovery coaches, recovery specialists and psychiatric prescribers.

Our services are designed using 西瓜视频鈥檚 Recovery-Centered Clinical System (RCCS). This system incorporates evidence-based practices and innovative design components, and emphasizes choice-making skills, harm-reduction techniques and strives to awaken the hopes and dreams of the individual. The RCCS emphasizes 鈥渘o-force first鈥 practices. Staff work with individuals within their cultural dynamic in building independence and self-responsibility to foster their recovery and successfully transition them back to lower levels of care.

Upon arrival, a diverse clinical team will conduct an individualized assessment and work with members every step of the way to support their goals in life.
