Substance Abuse (SA) Recovery Home Program

Program Description

Abound Rehabilitation Services (ARS) treats our special population of persons served with programming for Substance Use Disorders (SUD); including persons with Alcohol Abuse and other addictions/co-occurring disorder with a MARR addiction treatment approach and Medication Assisted Treatment programs that are medically managed. Central to treatment are the standards of MARR and medications, typically buprenorphine or naltrexone (suboxone), which are provided in concert with other medical and psychosocial interventions designed to realize a participant’s highest achievable recovery. Based on the needs of the persons served, our programs provide or arrange for a comprehensive array of treatment services that includes counseling/therapy, medication supports, social supports, housing supports, employment supports, education and training, care coordination, and other recovery-enhancing services.

All SUD services are under the supervision of a physician and are guided by written treatment procedures and protocols that address the routine needs of persons with substance use disorders, including the needs of our special populations. From induction to stabilization and on into maintenance, ARS SUD programming provides ongoing care to people served to support their recovery and enhance their quality of life.

Program Philosophy

Our approach to service delivery promotes a holistic approach to addiction recovery, focusing on the mind, body, and spirit of each individual. Our program philosophy is rooted in compassion, empowerment, and accountability. We strive to create a safe and supportive environment where individuals can heal and grow.

Our approach is based on evidence-based practices, personalized treatment plans, and ongoing support. We believe in treating the underlying causes of addiction, not just the symptoms. Our goal is to help individuals build a solid foundation for long-term recovery and a fulfilling life free from substance abuse.

We emphasize the importance of community, connection, and self-discovery in the recovery process. Through therapy, education, support groups, and experiential activities, we help individuals develop the skills and tools they need to navigate life’s challenges without turning to substances.

At ARS, we believe that every individual has the capacity for change and growth. We are committed to providing a nurturing and empowering environment where clients can rediscover their potential and take control of their lives. With dedication, support, and guidance, we believe that recovery is possible for everyone who walks through our doors.
