About Area Substance Abuse Council | ASAC – Clinton
The Area Substance Abuse Council provides alcohol and drug rehab services across Iowa. In Clinton, Iowa, they operate the New Directions program. This program provides residential treatment and outpatient services for adolescents and adults. You can also participate in medication assisted treatment here.
Their residential treatment program will help you break free from addiction in a safe, supervised environment. You’ll work closely with the on site nursing staff, and they’ll provide round the clock care to make sure you’re comfortable.
During the day, you’ll attend counseling sessions and educational programs that teach you the life skills you need for recovery. You can go to the sessions on your own, or with your family members. They also offer peer based group sessions. Through your counseling and coursework, you’ll address issues like emotional health, anger management, and relapse prevention. If you need medication to make your recovery easier, they can provide it to help control your cravings and lower the chance of relapse.
When you’re ready to step down from inpatient care, you can transition into their outpatient program, which will prepare you for a life in recovery.
