About Project Turnabout – Willmar
Project Turnabout is a nonprofit, CARF accredited drug and alcohol treatment center. They also offer treatment for co-occurring (dual diagnosis) disorders. They have several locations, including the Willmar Campus in Willmar, Minnesota. The Willmar Campus has outpatient treatment for men and women and a 16 bed women’s inpatient center. If you’re wondering how you’ll pay for treatment, the facility accepts insurance from many providers. They also take Medicaid, MNSURE, Direct Access, MA and Behavioral Health Funds.
The facility in Willmar offers a comprehensive range of services. The women’s residential (inpatient) program for women ages 18 and older has licensed professionals facilitating the programs. The program focuses on giving women a safe, healing environment while respecting and empowering them. Women take the time to understand the unique barriers they face that can be challenging to long term recovery.
Many women face personal issues such as lack of self esteem, depression, and psychological, emotional, and physical abuse that contribute to substance use. The inpatient center is for women only because these topics are so personal, and women may feel threatened to share in a mixed gender group therapy environment. Women are offered a holistic approach that teaches balance in relationships, health and life. Most women stay in the residential program for 28-45 days but can stay as long as 120 days.
The campus also includes a townhome for women in recovery who pursue vocational training or a higher education program. Additional women’s services include DWI clinics, continuing alcohol and drug recovery care, women’s recovery luncheons and outpatient alcohol and drug recovery programs.
The Willmar Campus also has outpatient programs for men and women ages 16 and over. These programs include the intensive outpatient program (IOP) and regular outpatient program. The IOP has day and evening sessions, and you’ll meet three days per week for three hours each time.
There are two regular outpatient programs that meet one and two times per week respectively. The programs emphasize relapse prevention through enhanced coping skills. You’ll participate in individual and group therapy, educational lectures, family education and 12 Step groups. You’ll leave the programs with a support network to help you maintain long term sobriety.
