About Native Directions – Manteca, California

Native Directions – Three Rivers Indian Lodge is an alcohol and drug rehabilitation center in Manteca, California. They offer residential addiction treatment and sober living housing for the Native American community. This program is CARF-accredited for traditional and urban American Indian substance addiction recovery. The residential program is a 180-day program involving 90 days of treatment and another 90 days of aftercare services.

Treatment is provided in their safe, structured and supportive residential community. Their therapeutic model incorporates holistic components that heal the mind, body and spirit. The program serves individuals over 18 willing to live in a sober environment and actively participate in all therapeutic activities. Most of these activities are culturally relevant to American Indians. For instance, walking the Red Road is a culturally recognized recovery path to empowerment and balance.

The 90-day treatment involves primarily individual and group sessions. These cut across multiple recovery aspects like anger management, PTSD and family challenges as well as addiction prevention and education sessions. Talking circle, domestic violence, as well as physical exercise and nutrition sessions are available. You’ll also participate in 12 Step programs like AA and NA. In addition, you’ll engage in various cultural activities like the Red Road and White Bison program.

The 90-day aftercare is geared towards ensuring that you continue to maintain the recovery gains from the 90 days of treatment. You’re required to remain clean, attend all mandatory meetings and fulfill your personalized aftercare plans, while complying with the program rules.

Emphasis is on goal realization, personal responsibility and accountability. Upon completing the 90-day aftercare program, you can apply for sober living housing to continue your recovery. This program offers you more time in recovery to focus on life changes. Activities include weekly meetings with counselors, mandatory recovery groups and an overall action plan for building a balanced life. Cultural beliefs and traditions are used in your continued quest for sobriety.

Comments from past clients reflect an overwhelmingly positive experience and impressive therapeutic results. One client said, “The best place to find yourself.”
