About Life Help Region VI – Kosciusko
Life Help Region 6 in Kosciusko, Mississippi, is a non profit agency that offers addiction treatment. At their Attala County location on Huntington Street, you can recover support services and alcohol and drug prevention services. Payment can be made through a sliding fee scale, Medicaid, Medicare or private insurance. The facility won’t deny any individual access to treatment for an inability to pay.
The alcohol and drug prevention service helps to educate community members in Kosciusko about the dangers of illicit drugs and alcohol. Prevention Specialists provide presentations on an ongoing basis to youth between the ages of 12 and 17 and young adults between the ages of 18 and 25. They additionally provide information about the illegality of selling tobacco products to underage clients.
One thing I really like about this location is the recovery support staff. These professionals are available to help you from referral to treatment to completion of your treatment and aftercare. The recovery support staff can stay connected with you with the goal of reducing your risk of relapse. These staff members may also have their own personal experiences with addiction that they can use to help encourage and support you.
If clients need other services, Life Help Region 6 offers inpatient and outpatient care at other locations nearby. Their Leflore County location in Greenwood, Mississippi, has an adult and adolescent intensive outpatient program and a men’s residential facility.
Nature enthusiasts will enjoy the fact that Kosciusko is not far from the Tombigbee National Forest. You can spend time enjoying nature and reflecting.
