We are a professional alcohol, drug, gambling and family rehabilitation program dedicated to providing effective treatment with practical goals and a reasonable cost for services. We will turn no one away who we feel would benefit from treatment, including those currently supervised by federal or state corrections programs. We also offer our services to pregnant women and to intravenous drug users. It is the policy of the Board of Recovery House, Inc. to provide a comprehensive, co-educational residential substance abuse treatment program to all adults who may be in need of such services. Treatment orientation is based upon the original Alcoholics Anonymous model of abstinence from alcohol and all other drugs that are individually abused by the client. It is the policy of the Board to guide our clients into support via twelve-step groups while they are in treatment and to strongly recommend a continuation of the same after discharge. Our primary purpose is to provide our clients and their family members with the information, skills and resources necessary to obtain and sustain an alcohol-free and/or drug-free lifestyle. Treatment and various types of support systems are integral to this goal.
