About Cocaine and Alcohol Awareness Program – Memphis
Cocaine and Alcohol Awareness Program provides high quality behavioral health and co-occurring mental health services for those who are financially limited in the Memphis, Tennessee, area. They aid people in overcoming chemical dependency, homelessness, domestic violence, victimization, and other self defeating behavioral health and co-occurring mental health disorder issues. Their addiction related services include residential treatment, outpatient treatment, and a homeless veterans housing program.
Residential treatment is available for anyone needing inpatient level care, regardless of their ability to pay. It’s a coed therapeutic environment that offers individual and group counseling and psychosocial support. Alcohol and drug education, life skills training, and relapse prevention are implemented into a highly structured and safe environment where deeper work can unfold. Random drug testing will take place throughout the program. You can stay there for a maximum of six months.
Outpatient treatment is for those who do not need the 24/7 support that comes with residential treatment. Everyone who participates in outpatient treatment will need to attend regularly scheduled sessions in the morning and evening hours. Anger management and relapse prevention will be addressed, along with personal concerns and goals. Six to nine hours of participation per week are expected, with an average stay of 90 days. Upon completion of the treatment program, you’re monitored through a two year program consisting of therapeutic groups and other support systems.
Their Homeless Veteran Residential Transitional Housing (HVRTH) Program is an innovative program that helps homeless veterans access and engage in behavioral health and addiction recovery services. This program delivers comprehensive treatment that focuses on your physical, mental, and behavioral health. Addiction treatment is addressed through traditional clinical models such as therapy and behavior modification. Examples of services include primary care services, affordable housing, introduction to moral reasoning, and social skills development. To support your long-term recovery, aftercare services, including career readiness training, transportation, and educational support, are available.
They operate as a sliding scale facility and don’t require insurance. However, if referrals are made to outside recovery resources, those facilities may be in-network with most commercial insurance plans. Speak with your individual provider to verify your coverage as out of network benefits can vary.
