About Project CURE – Daruma Parkway – Dayton
Project C.U.R.E., Inc. (Curative, Ultimative, Rehabilitative, Efforts) was a non-profit drug rehab program in Dayton, Ohio. Before they closed in July of 2024, they helped individuals living throughout Montgomery County who were experiencing opioid addiction and issues with alcohol abuse. While they were open, they were licensed and certified by the Ohio Mental Health and Addiction Services (OMHAS).
Their dedicated medical team included doctors and nurses trained in addiction medicine. They understood chemical dependency and were deeply committed to each client’s success in recovery.
Clients started treatment with a comprehensive health evaluation. Clients dealing with opioid use had access to methadone to help manage withdrawal symptoms and get a grasp on changing their lifestyle to be able to live a drug free life.
As part of of treatment, clients also participated in counseling where they learned how to stay clean.
The medical team focused on more than just methadone administration. They genuinely cared about the overall health of every client. Staff at the clinic also worked with partner agencies to make sure clients had access to free Hepatitis testing and vaccinations, as well as TB and HIV testing.
The outpatient program helped people get their lives back on track. Counselors provided the right tools and support to help make lasting changes. They worked closely with every client to figure out what worked and how to stay focused.
Recovery wasn’t just about kicking the habit. It was about rebuilding life, step by step, and believing it was possible.
The program at Project C.U.R.E. helped many people, but the closure of the Daruma Pkwy location made it tough for clients to adjust and lose the familiar connections they built over the years. The sense of community played an important role in their recovery, and it’s sad to see those relationships disrupted.
