About The Freedom Center – Mount Vernon
You’ll find The Freedom Center in Mount Vernon, Ohio, just an hour outside of Columbus. This outpatient prevention and behavioral health facility welcomes adults, youth and families. You can access comprehensive addiction and co-occurring disorder care to start or continue your recovery journey.
One great thing about them is they’ll always provide care regardless of finances. You can use commercial insurance, Medicaid, Medicare or private pay. Even if you don’t have insurance, they provide discounted sliding fee scales based on income and family size. That said, finances won’t have to get in the way of getting the help you need.
They provide intensive and standard outpatient programs so you can attend rehab while living at home. Before starting treatment, you’ll complete a thorough assessment to determine the best level of care for you. While required attendance frequency varies, each program offers group and individual counseling, family support services and case management.
What stands out most to me is their Housing Support Program. You can access resources and a four-week course to understand the ins and outs of securing a permanent home. They also offer housing navigation services, including personalized support in finding suitable housing and connections to housing opportunities. You’ll benefit from having a stable home to set yourself up for success in recovery.
Their criminal justice services also caught my eye. They provide probation and jail services for court-ordered people battling addiction. Of these programs, their drug court seems fantastic. This track offers addiction treatment, supervision, alcohol and drug testing, and more as an alternative to incarceration for people facing offenses due to their addictions.
Lastly, their Women’s program looks great. This track uses an empowerment model to help women reach recovery. You’ll benefit from a safe space to connect with women on similar paths while receiving tailored care for your unique situation.
