Accessible Treatment for Substance Use and Mental Health

The center’s mission centers around removing barriers to substance use care. The program serves people who might otherwise go without treatment by offering residential, outpatient, and supportive services regardless of financial circumstances. Every client begins with a full medical exam and assessment to identify not only substance use concerns but also mental health needs, social challenges, and family issues. Family counseling is also offered.

Residential Program for Men

The residential program, available to adult men, provides 45–90 days of structured care focused on accountability, personal growth, and family restoration. The grounds include basketball and volleyball courts, a walking trail, and a softball field, creating space for physical activity and social downtime. Clients participate in daily counseling, group education, and recovery meetings. Onsite medical partners provide routine health care.

12-Step, SMART Recovery, and Evidence-Based Therapies

Treatment is grounded in evidence-based methods while addressing the emotional and social roots of addiction. Cognitive behavioral therapy (CBT), motivational interviewing, relapse prevention, and trauma-informed counseling help clients build coping skills. Clients participate in 12-step meetings such as Alcoholics Anonymous (AA) and Narcotics Anonymous (NA). Science-based SMART Recovery is also available, offering an alternative pathway for clients. The center welcomes clients managing co-occurring mental health conditions and supports clients already prescribed medications for addiction treatment (MAT) by outside providers.

Outpatient and Continuing Care

For those who cannot step away fully from family or work, the center provides outpatient counseling programs. Outpatient participants attend two to three classes weekly over three to six months, receiving the same evidence-based care with a flexible schedule. After residential or outpatient care, recovery support continues for up to a year. Services include recovery coaching, mentoring, and peer groups. Alumni often return to lead meetings and provide encouragement for new clients. This can help reduce the sense of isolation many face after treatment.

Quality and Trust

A+

Trust Score

A simple A–E grade that offers a quick view of how much confidence you might place in a facility. It’s not a guarantee of quality or outcomes, but a data-informed tool to help guide your search. More on our methodology.

Commission on Accreditation of Rehabilitation Facilities

CARF reviews rehab programs to make sure they provide respectful, effective, and personalized care. For addiction treatment, CARF uses standards developed with the American Society of Addiction Medicine (ASAM), so this accreditation shows the program follows trusted, evidence-based guidelines for treating substance use.

How we research treatment facilities

Across the site, our team has conducted over 1,000 pre-admissions calls to better understand the patient experience, interviewed facility clinical leaders, performed facility background checks, and compared our information against trusted public data sources.

Our research process begins with data from the Substance Abuse and Mental Health Services Administration (SAMHSA), accrediting bodies including The Joint Commission and CARF, government licensing agencies, and other trusted sources. From there, our team conducts significant original research, including:

- Pre-admissions calls: We speak with admissions staff to get a candid picture of patient experience.

- Background checks: We review complaints from past clients, media reports, actions taken by accrediting bodies, and positive recognition from notable organizations.

- Clinical interviews: We have in-depth conversations with clinical leadership, often lasting up to one hour, that give us a better understanding of clinical care.

- Data partnerships: We ingest and analyze exclusive data that provides information about in-network insurance status, cost, and more.

Research varies by facility. Each facility profile shows which research steps we completed and when each step was last performed. Learn more about our research process and background checks.

How we evaluate treatment facilities

These data help us develop a Trust Score for each facility—a simple letter grade that helps you assess how much confidence to place in a facility based on the information available to us. Trust Score considers accreditation, operating history, notable recognition, and concerns identified during our background check. Our Trust Score is an objective rating that is never influenced by advertiser payment. Learn more about our Trust Score methodology.

Important disclaimer

We cannot guarantee the quality of treatment at any facility. We cannot independently confirm the accuracy of every data point, and some information may become outdated or change over time. A Trust Score is a starting point, not a guarantee of treatment quality or outcomes. Please contact us if you would like to update or correct facility information.
