Although we do one time assessments our philosophy is that an
assessment is only current on the day of the assessment. We
continue to assess our clients while engaged with us and change
Recovery Plans according to the needs of our clients. We make
referrals as needed so our clients have the best chances for
continued recovery.
Recovery Plans include goals and purposeful plans of action
designed to achieve them. Our Recovery Care Specialists work
closely with clients to develop their Plans and help ensure that
pursuits are fueled by healthy motivation and built upon firm, well
thought out, foundations. They hold clients accountable for
following through with their plans by following up with them
individually and in facilitated peer support groups.

- Recovery from Chemical Dependency

- Mental Health Issues
- Recovery from Co-Occurring Issues
