Therapeutic community is at the heart of our residential program. This means clients have a comfortable living situation with roommates, on-site residential staff, work/life balance, real relationships, boundaries, activities, group and personal accountability, community groups, and more. It also means that after leaving our program, we continue to support alumni however possible.
