Journey Residential Program
For many, additional time in treatment is needed to solidify the gains made during early recovery. The National Institute of Drug Abuse believes that "...for most patients, the threshold of significant improvement is reached at about three months of treatment." Clients with a history of relapse or those needing improved coping skills often benefit from an extended treatment stay. Our separate Long Term Programs for men and women offer the additional time clients need at very affordable prices (Lengths of stay are generally from 90 days or more to several months.)
