About SEMCOA – WRAP House – New Bedford
SEMCOA – WRAP House, in New Bedford, Massachusetts, provides residential treatment for women 18 and older who are recovering from substance use disorder and co-occurring mental health issues. You can stay at the residence for up to nine months and if you need special services, including court ordered programming, they can assist you. They also provide orientation to self-help programs.
You’ll get a personalized treatment plan to help with your individual needs. They offer assistance for those seeking or already receiving medication assisted treatment. Their services include mental health treatment, that may include various therapy methods, individual and group counseling sessions, and aftercare planning.
One thing that stands out to me is their strong emphasis on addiction education and relapse prevention and recovery skills, along with health and wellness information. Some of their amenities include nutritional guidance, access to medical services, and recreational activities.
They also really encourage family involvement to help loved ones understand triggers and coping strategies. You might be referred to other agencies for more specialized care if you need it. Their goal is to prevent relapse and give you the tools to maintain recovery after leaving the program.
Former clients have mixed feelings about their program. Some complain about the care they received but others praise the program for truly helping those who are willing to put in the work.
