We have proven time and again, since we opened our doors in February 1987, that it is possible to rehabilitate addicted people who are harmfully involved with alcohol, drugs or gambling.
Over the years, many people have entered our doors with a desire to rebuild their lives and learn more about awareness & prevention of addiction issues. After participating in the Alcare Place Recovery Program, our clients return to their communities as productive, contributing family members and citizens.
Alcare Place provides a stable, safe and supportive environment in which our program participants are able to focus their energies toward change and growth.
Alcare Place can facilitate 13 clients and is supervised 24-hours a day. We are open to people with addiction issues aged 19 and over who are looking for a fresh start in life. As recovery from addiction is a multi-faceted, long-term process, only those who show a commitment to recovery will be considered to attend our program.
Before applicants can be accepted they must meet the following conditions:
* They must have a commitment
to recovery
* Meet with staff for intake application and assessment
* They must adhere to the nature and philosophy of the Alcare Place Recovery
Program
The average length of stay is 5.5 months, although it is not uncommon for clients to stay up to a year. Program participation and progress is monitored by regular case reviews.
TESTIMONIAL
"How do I put into words what Alcare means
to me? My addictions were on the verge of killing me when this place came
into my life. First, the four walls gave me a safe place to stay while
I dealt with the physical cravings and thoughts that plague addicts in
their first months of sobriety. Secondly, the staff showed me that a sober,
happy life is possible by setting an example for me on a daily basis.
Finally, the programs offered to me at Alcare gave me the skills and self-confidence
that I lacked to face the world and succeed in life. It's 8 years, two
university degrees, two years as a teacher, and two months of marriage
later and I know that none of it is possible without Alcare. So how do
I put into words what Alcare means to me? One word: home." Darren H. June 1998 - March 1999
