About Lafayette County Human Services – Darlington
Drug Abuse Unit (AODA) offers empathetic outpatient care for substance use and co-occurring disorders including anxiety, depression and post-traumatic stress disorder (PTSD). Adults and adolescents can benefit from person-centered treatment best practices to advance in recovery.
Outpatient care gives you the flexibility to live at home and tend to daily responsibilities while getting the help you need. You can access a confidential assessment to determine the best level of care for you. Then, you’ll receive a personalized treatment plan that prioritizes your strengths and needs. You can participate in proven approaches like addiction education, counseling and more. These interventions can help you develop essential coping skills to change the behaviors contributing to addiction.
What stands out most to me is they prioritize pregnant women. You can receive treatment as soon as possible to reach your recovery goals. I think this is great because starting your recovery journey is often a challenging decision. They ensure you get the care you seek whenever you’re ready which is vital in these vulnerable populations.
Another great feature that caught my eye was their DUI program. If you’re facing a DUI offense then you can participate in this track to reinstate your license. You’ll complete an assessment to create a customized Driver Safety Plan for your unique needs. You’ll then participate in educational courses, treatment services, counseling or a combination for up to a year. This is nice because you’ll have tailored care to overcome addiction and learn about safe driving.
