About Stepping Stones of Rockford – Rockford
Stepping Stones of Rockford is in Rockford, Illinois. They offer residential treatment for alcohol and drug abuse among adults. Their residential programs take place in homes, apartments, and in community centers. An outpatient clinic is also in Rockford.
At Rockford, you’ll have residential care that consists of 24/7 support, psychiatric and medical programs, and counseling. The apartment or house where you’ll be staying has a full-time staff, which can include mental health experts, nurses, and social workers. That way, your addiction and any underlying conditions can be treated.
The apartments and houses are allocated depending on the level of care you need, with some more restrictive than others. The apartments are gender specific, with different numbers of clients allowed in each center. The staff and residents are responsible for getting food, the upkeep, and providing for managing the calendars. To encourage independence, you’ll be allowed to use public transportation to go to school, work or volunteer in the local community. Smoking may be allowed, depending on what you all decide.
When inpatient care is complete, you’ll be eligible for an outpatient program, where you can continue your recovery. Outpatient is available for children 6+ and adults, and options include family conferencing, medication management, and an online telepsychiatry platform.
The Stars of Light program is a theatrical troupe made up of Stepping Stones alumni. It started back in 1955, and they travel the country performing and bringing awareness to the public. They’ve appeared on stage, radio, videos, and television. They also provide motivational speakers and assist with rehabilitation.
