About Port of Hope – Nampa
You’ll find Port of Hope in suburban Nampa, Idaho, less than 30 minutes outside of Boise. What began as a sober living home in 1971 blossomed into a treatment center with a full continuum of care. From social detox to traditional outpatient programs, you can receive care for any recovery stage.
Their non-medical facility welcomes adult men and women battling addiction and co-occurring disorders. Whether you need 24/7 support or can live at home and attend treatment, they have an option for you.
You and your family can benefit from group and individual counseling sessions with multiple proven approaches. Treatment best practices can help you identify and change the behaviors contributing to addiction and develop essential coping skills to sustain recovery.
For me, their social model detox approach really caught my eye. Many attend medical detox as a first step in treatment. This process can involve medications to ease withdrawal symptoms and cravings associated with quitting substances.
They provide an alternative to medical detox, helping you safely withdraw without medications. I think this is a great option if you don’t want to include medications in your journey. Their facility is also located near medical centers, in case of an emergency.
Their emphasis on peer support and personal recovery experience is fantastic. Many counselors have live experience in addiction and recovery. You’ll benefit from gaining new insights from someone who was once in your shoes.
They also create a welcoming, home-like atmosphere with peers on similar paths. You can connect with others you resonate with and learn and grow together.
I also think it’s great that they have DUI services. If you have a DUI offense, you can participate in court ordered evals and educational classes to understand addiction. They provide the tools to change your behaviors and drive safely.
