We are a non-profit, substance abuse treatment center that offers treatment, education, prevention, & other recovery services to people who have experienced the negative effects of addiction, their families, and
to our communities. Services for addicts-
Licensed services include: drug and alcohol assessments, DUI evaluations, DUI classes using the AA/NA program, and licensed substance abuse counse
ling. Utilizing the SMART program, our certified peer mentoring services are provided by our staff who are recovering addicts themselves that are now living in long-term recovery. They've experienced the heartbreak of seeing their own lives be destroyed by substance abuse, been incarcerated multiple times, lost custody of children, lost jobs and homes, and have seen familial relationships break down. But one day, they became sick and tired of being sick and tired, and made the deliberate decision to get clean and sober. They'll will work closely with you to attain the goals set up in your individual treatment plan, assist in finding community service hours, housing, and employment. At your request, they can accompany you to court, medical appointments, and child custody meetings. They teach cognitive behavior (COG) classes for KDOC, and just for fun, even host sober socials to show you that it is possible to have fun in a public setting while clean and sober. Their much-needed emotional support, praise, and holding you accountable for your goals are the real game-changers in your success! They look forward to helping you with your journey from active addiction, to sobriety, into long-term recovery. Services for families-
In the world of addiction, we know the families can become just as sick as the actual addict. Therefore, we've incorporated the cutting edge CRAFT method into our program for families, which boasts a 70% success rate, the highest of any program out there for getting your loved one into treatment. In our pattern-changing classes for families, we'll teach you how to set clear and safe boundaries with your addicts, how to stop enabling addictive behaviors, how to rebuild healthy familial relationships, and stop the co-dependence by engaging with your addicted loved ones in a new, empathic and supportive way that isn’t judgmental. We understand how difficult it is to sit in court, as you watch your loved one in handcuffs being handed down his/her sentence, or on the brink of losing custody of their children. Therefore, we also offer accompaniment to criminal and child custody court appearances and child custody meetings with DCF and the foster care agency. We also hold support groups to provide much-needed emotional support for families. Services to our communites:
Besides the services we provide to addicts and their families, we also have services available to the communities in northwest Kansas. We can do presentations to schools, clubs, churches, and other organizations about the dangers of substance abuse, or we can tailor a presentation specific to your organization's needs. Our Peer Mentors can speak about their own life experiences of addiction, how this disease destroyed their lives, and even more importantly, how they were able to get clean and sober and go on to realize happy, healthy, and respectable lives. We can also work with employers through their HR or Employee Assistance Programs to accept referrals for any of their staff who may need a drug or alcohol assessment, DUI evaluation, licensed counseling, or any of our other services we offer. As if addiction isn’t already accompanied by plenty of regular mental health issues, the current pandemic has exponentially increased the need for our services. So we’ve expanded our peer mentoring and advocacy services to include other mental health issues such as anxiety, depression, PTSD, and grief management. Included in those services is a small chapel room and an indoor meditation garden room. Both will provide you with a safe haven to sit quietly alone (or with an advocacy or peer mentor) so you can tune out the outside chaos in your life and focus on your own mental health well-being. Whatever helps you to relax and re-energize, as long as it’s legal, you are welcome to do in these rooms. Spiritual Chapel:
We know how heartbreaking, chaotic ,or nerve-racking it can be when you have a loved one in active addiction. Having your heart miss a beat every time you get a phone call late at night, or from that familiar phone number where you know it's not going to be a welcome phone call. Or worse, not hearing from your loved one for an extended period of time, so your mind starts going to really dark, scary places that it should never have to imagine. Watching your loved one lose yet another job, be evicted, or worse, lose their children to foster care, or be arrested...again. Sometimes, depending on our faith is the only thing that will bring a little peace and hope. Our small chapel will allow you to do just that. Take a minute to yourself to light a candle and pray. Simultaneously, we understand that living on the skirts of the addiction world can be very isolating and lonely. So if you prefer, an advocate will be more than happy to sit quietly with you in our chapel, and even pray with you. Indoor Mediation Garden Room:
Sometimes, just having a quiet place you can escape to for a few minutes to drown out the world is just what you need. But many of us still consider ourselves spiritual and believe in a higher power nonetheless. Some might find their serenity in listening to soft music, creative writing or journaling, yoga, or reading. Our indoor meditation garden room just might be a room you can leave your worries at the door, and come in and relax for a few minutes. Some will prefer to be alone with your thoughts, as you enjoy the pretty foliage and listen to the sound of gentle water splashing in the fountain. Others will prefer to have an advocate there to talk through some of their feelings of fear, anger, frustration, and acceptance of their situation, or share memories of happier times. Either way, we are here to support you any way we can. Now, finally for the best part...we offer all of our services at NO OUT-OF-POCKET COST! That’s right, we don’t expect personal payment for our services! Of course, if you have insurance, we will bill your insurance company. But we have several grant avenues we can utilize to pay for your services. We also recognize that some people have pride and “want” to pay for their services. If that’s you, we will gladly accept your personal donations, as well as donations from churches, clubs, sororities, company and corporate, and other organizational donations from our community partners. Call us today if you or a loved one, or your business is in need of any of our services!
