This program aims to equip you with skills for independent and substance-free living in the real world. You’ll benefit from 24/7 guidance and support from certified counselors. You’ll work together with these experts to create a personalized care plan tailored to your unique needs following a thorough evaluation. They use the Recovery Dynamics model of care to guide clients through the 12-step practices. This helps you develop self-awareness, accountability and lifelong recovery skills.
You’ll attend educational classes to gain insight into the disease concept of addiction, the 12 Steps of AA/NA and the process of recovery.

You’re required to attend an offsite AA/NA meeting. Not only that, you’re expected to find a sponsor within the AA fellowship and maintain regular contact as you navigate sobriety.
