START (Services Through Adult Residential Treatment)

Taking the best ideas from over 35 years of treating substance abusers in our long-term residential Bridge I program and our short-term programs in Bridge II, the START program is an excellent option for individuals with chronic drug and alcohol problems. The START program utilizes a holistic approach in which traditional and alternative treatment methods are used. Although the program is tailored to fit the needs of the individual, treatment typically lasts six months, with length of stay varying according to client need. While this program addresses key issues, we have also found notable success with young adults who often have difficulty maintaining recovery in traditional environments. The START program offers the following services in a nurturing and structured environment:

• Individual Counseling
• Group Therapy
• Relapse Prevention
• Family Education and Counseling
• Vocational Preparation
• Stress Reduction
• Anger Management
• Yoga
• 12-Step Support
• Urinalysis Testing
• Aftercare

Our START program is offered in a nurturing environment and utilizes a holistic approach. This approach incorporates physical, psychological, familial, spiritual, and alternative methods of treatment.

Our dedicated and professional staff work as a team and treat each client as an individual with unique needs.

We emphasize quality of care and understand the importance of compassion, support, and teamwork.
