About Lafayette House – Neosho
Based in Joplin, Missouri, Lafayette House offers sanctuary and support services for domestic abuse, sexual assault, and substance abuse. Care is available to women aged 18+ and their children. Outpatient addiction treatment services are available to participants in Jasper, McDonald, and Newton County drug courts’ programs.
One former client describes the facility’s ethos as ‘family-oriented’, while another praised a wonderful experience, giving thanks for being offered the tools they needed to change their life. Now, what do these ‘tools’ look like? Well, when it comes to their support for substance use disorder, they have many. Medication-assisted treatment is one, combined with thorough counseling and recovery services. This includes individual, group, and family counseling. They also provide you with education programs, case management, and support in finding housing or employment. Their treatment services are available on an outpatient or residential basis, depending on individuals’ needs.
Something I really appreciate is their children’s services. In line with the ‘family-oriented’ ethos echoed by one of their former clients, they offer onsite licensed childcare. Invaluable for any parents trying to juggle the demands of childrearing, while struggling through their recovery journey. I really rate Lafayette for providing this service.
