From Jim B.

Thank you so much for helping our large family come together and do what was needed to get my son off the streets. I was so scared because when we started working together we didn't even know where Chuck was. You began to teach us how to understand what our 19 year old was experiencing as a result of his heroin addiction. Even more important you helped us understand what it was doing to each of us. When he finally surfaced you were right there and you found a place to get him off the streets. He now has a chance for a different life.

RCP Phase I - Intervention

The primary goal of an intervention is to get the addicted individual to seek the help they need.

This phase begins for the addicted individual or family members when problems start happening as a result of the identified persons use of alcohol, drugs, or other mood altering behaviors. Despite these natural interventions the addicted individual usually needs more help to see the nature of their disease and the impact it is having on their lives. When family and friends become concerned enough to seek professional help, East Coast Recovery Services is there.

ECRS consults with the family and friends of the addicted individual to develop an assessment and determine a strategy for a more formalized intervention process. Working closely with the participants, ECRS staff helps them prepare for and practice intervention techniques that can help the addicted individual seek the appropriate level of care. ECRS facilitates interventions, updates assessments for all involved parties and makes recommendations for next steps. If acute treatment is needed, ECRS will advocate for all so they get the most out of any treatment proscribed.
