About Josephine County Community Corrections – Substance Abuse Program – Grants Pass
Josephine County Community Corrections – Substance Abuse Program on 4th street in Grants Pass, Oregon, is a substance abuse program for those involved with the criminal justice system. The program focuses on an individual’s future and their potential rather than their past and the actions that led them here. There are programs to help individuals avoid incarceration, to rehabilitate those who are incarcerated and to help all deal with the trauma and the circumstances that led them to be involved with the courts in the first place.
Treatment helps individuals identify the thoughts, emotions and choices that affect their lives and the lives of those around them. It teaches a person to gain awareness and feel more in control of their own life and the way they make decisions in their relationships and life.
The community corrections program has a Secure Treatment facility for medium and high-risk offenders. They may have long or short sentences to serve and will spend that time receiving treatment while at the local jail.
Once an offender is out of jail, they will have community restrictions and supervision requirements to uphold. This may include treatment on an outpatient or residential basis. These services may be voluntary for those who are looking to make a long-lasting change in their life. Services could also be court ordered for those whom the corrections system feels would benefit from it.
It can be difficult for individuals who are coming out of a corrections facility to adjust to and find success in life. Group and individual therapy as well as other programs that are deemed appropriate are offered to help participants reintegrate into their community.
