About Lutheran Social Services – Sterling
Lutheran Social Services is an alcohol and drug rehab facility in Sterling, Illinois, about two hours outside of Chicago. This Christian nonprofit offers general outpatient programs (OP), intensive outpatient programs (IOPs), inpatient care and aftercare programs for men and women. The organization also provides dual diagnosis care, including therapy and medication management, for people with co-occurring mental illnesses such as depression, anxiety, manic depression or borderline personality disorder.
One of the state’s largest social services providers, Lutheran Social Services of Illinois has been an integral part of the community since 1867. They serve roughly 50,000 people every year through a broad spectrum of programs, including addiction treatment, affordable senior housing, mental health care and support for people who have been incarcerated. The organization recognizes how centuries of systemic racism and other forms of discrimination have harmed various communities and are committed to providing a safe, inclusive space where all people feel equally welcome.
The organization is committed to supporting people at all stages of their recovery journey, from detox to long term sobriety. When you seek care here, a case manager will help you decide what type of treatment best suits your needs, whether that is inpatient care or outpatient telehealth services. It’s great that this facility provides such a diverse range of treatment options, as this means you won’t need to transfer from one provider to another as you progress in your recovery. I also appreciate that they provide services, including group therapy sessions, at various times of the day, so it’s easier for people to fit treatment in with childcare, work, school and other obligations.
