Teen Challenge of the Dakotas

Teen Challenge of the Dakotas is located in Brookings, South Dakota, and provides addiction treatment through 24-hour clinical care, inpatient treatment, and aftercare support. Its adult program addresses alcoholism, drug addiction, opioid addiction, and substance abuse more broadly. Inpatient care generally means a person lives at the facility while receiving structured treatment, while 24-hour clinical care typically involves ongoing monitoring and support throughout the day and night. Aftercare support commonly refers to continued services after a primary treatment stay, such as ongoing counseling or recovery planning.

The facility lists a range of therapies and clinical services, including Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, Family Therapy, Group Therapy, Individual Therapy, Motivational Interviewing, Trauma Therapy, Life Skills, and Recreational Therapy. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy generally focuses on recognizing and changing patterns of thought and behavior that contribute to substance use. Family Therapy typically involves loved ones in the recovery process, while Group and Individual Therapy offer different settings for personal work and peer support. Motivational Interviewing is a collaborative approach aimed at strengthening a person’s own motivation to change, and Trauma Therapy addresses the effects of past traumatic experiences. Life Skills and Recreational Therapy often help people build practical daily living abilities and healthy ways to spend their time.

Insurance and payment details are not specified in the available information, so it is worth asking the facility directly about options. The program is described as serving adults.
