Description of Programs
 

Anne Marie Connelly Detoxification Unit

The detoxification unit provides detoxification and stabilization services for clients who are addicted to alcohol and / or other drugs. The agency works closely with emergency rooms and social service agencies of all types in an effort to provide coordinated services. Withdrawal from alcohol and other drugs can be a life-threatening condition. We provide highly sophisticated monitoring and management of the detoxification process. The goal is to safely detox individuals who might otherwise experience damage or death due to their addiction. The detoxification unit admits clients 24 hours a day, 7 days a week.
 

Addiction Recovery Center

The Addiction Recovery Center is a short-term intensive residential program typically four to six weeks in length. Clients begin to develop the skills needed to achieve stable recovery. Addiction is a biopsychosocial illness that impacts all aspects of an individual's functioning. Program components include intensive group therapy, lectures, stress management, relapse prevention, an intensive family program, and aftercare planning. Counselors work closely with individuals to facilitate completion of goals outlined in an individualized treatment plan.

The Turning Point program provides women and men the opportunity to live in a structured, safe, sober environment while transitioning back into the community. This working halfway house offers a three phase program designed to help those in early recovery. Residents are required to obtain employment, participate in group and individual counseling, and attend Alcoholics Anonymous / Narcotics Anonymous meetings.

Impaired Driver Intervention Program

The impaired Driver Intervention Program utilizes curriculum developed by the Prevention Research Institute, Inc. (PRI). This 20-hour program is a risk reduction curriculum which lends itself to license restoration. This program has been developed and tested to address both the alcoholic offender's needs for abstinence and acceptance of treatment, and the prevention needs of those who do not meet the criteria for alcohol dependence. The program includes the following components: a 90-minute intake interview, the PRI psycho-educational curriculum, and an Exit Interview by a Licensed Alcohol and Drug Counselor.

 

PRIME For Life Under 21

This is a program for individuals ages thirteen to twenty who are already engaged in high-risk drinking or drug use. The course includes a student workbook, a self-assessment, and individual and group activities. The PRI Under 21 curriculum is particularly relevant for school systems, therapists and the criminal justice system. The program content is carefully selected to achieve specific attitude and behavior changes in young people to help reduce the risk of alcohol and drug problems throughout their lives.
