About Social Model Recovery System – Mariposa – Covina
The nation’s entertainment capital, Los Angeles, California is home to Social Model Recovery Systems – Mariposa. Since 1986, Social Model Recovery Systems has served adults, youth and families battling addiction and mental health conditions.
Their Mariposa location opened in 1992 and provides a supportive living environment for women and mothers to connect and grow together. Whether you have commercial insurance, can pay out of pocket or require financial assistance, they ensure you get the help you need.
With residential care, you live on campus while receiving ongoing support and encouragement. Their program uses a social model approach, emphasizing staff and peer connections to reach sustained recovery. You can participate in group sessions focused on parenting, anger management, relapse prevention, domestic violence prevention and more. They also link you with medical, mental health,and thereputic services based on your unique situation.
What stands out most to me is their emphasis on family reunification. Addiction can tear families apart, leaving you with feelings of guilt and broken relationships. They strive to help you rebuild connections with your loved ones including regaining custody of your children if appropriate. I think is a wonderful approach because as you grow in recovery you can make essential changes to create a brighter future for you and your loved ones.
Another great feature that caught my eye was they offer transitional housing for families. Stepping away from your children can be one of the hardest parts of recovery. Once you complete their residential program then you can access a safe living environment to continue your journey with your children. You’ll benefit from ongoing support to advance in recovery and work on other essential life aspects like parenting, employment, and education.
