About Homeward Bound – Dallas
Known for its legendary cowboy culture, Dallas, Texas is where you’ll find Homeward Bound. They’re one of Texas’s oldest and largest behavioral health agencies. Their programs have helped over 250,000 people reach recovery over the course of 45 years and counting. You can access outpatient substance abuse and mental health care here to start or continue your journey.
They serve all clients here regardless of finances. You can use private or public insurance including BlueCross BlueShield, Amerigroup and Medicaid. They also provide discounts based on income and family size for vital services if you don’t have insurance.
They offer expert backed outpatient approaches including addiction education and counseling as well as peer support and an introduction to 12 step programs.
What strikes me most is their Dallas Deflects program. This track provides recovery services to divert people with low level, nonviolent misdemeanor offenses to treatment instead of jail. You can access trauma informed care, including a personalized case management and discharge plan. You’ll benefit from a second chance to get your life on track and prevent future offenses.
Another great feature I noticed was their medication assisted treatment program. You can access FDA approved medications like Suboxone and Subutex to ease withdrawal symptoms and cravings. This can create a solid foundation to focus solely on getting to the root of addiction.
Many former clients expressed satisfaction with their services. Some praised their helpful, compassionate staff and appreciated the various options for customized care. Recovery is a unique experience though so be sure to research and consider multiple facilities to find the best fit.
