In the ERC program, individuals receive clinical services, housing, and meals, with personalized treatment plans. After completing the program, they can transition to Recovery Homes, where they receive less frequent clinical support, preparing them for independent living. The center also offers intensive outpatient (IOP) for in person, and outpatient (OP) services via zoom or telehealth.Teens ages 13-17 can also participate in outpatient services.
The center provides a comprehensive approach to recovery, including individual treatment plans, clinical services, and a focus on rebuilding life skills.

The center’s goal is to promote lasting recovery through support, therapy, and community involvement.
