Residential Care for Men in the Heart of Indianapolis

Turning Point Recovery Center provides ASAM 3.5 residential treatment for men referred through Indiana’s criminal justice system. Located in downtown Indianapolis, the CARF-accredited program offers an alternative to incarceration, combining 24/7 support, court advocacy, and individualized treatment plans that address both substance use and co-occurring mental health needs.

Medications and Therapies Backed by Evidence

The program offers a wide range of medications for addiction treatment (MAT) and related health needs, including buprenorphine, naltrexone, acamprosate, disulfiram, clonidine, and nicotine replacement. Treatment approaches include cognitive behavioral therapy (CBT), motivational interviewing, relapse prevention, trauma-informed counseling, anger management, and 12-step facilitation. Telehealth extends access to care during and after treatment.

Comprehensive Support Services

Services go beyond clinical treatment, offering integrated primary care, mental health services, and HIV/STD/TB/hepatitis testing. Recovery support includes case management, peer mentoring, recovery coaching, and vocational training to strengthen life after treatment. Family and couples counseling help rebuild relationships, while child care and transportation assistance make care more accessible for clients and families.

Planning for Recovery Beyond Treatment

Discharge services focus on long-term stability through overdose education, naloxone distribution, and structured aftercare with outcome follow-up. Clients also benefit from peer support groups, housing connections, and employment counseling to prepare for community reentry. Smoking is permitted in designated areas, while vaping is not.

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.
