When does someone need Drug and Alcohol Treatment?
Changing friends, getting into trouble, and decrease in school or job performance are tell tale signs that your child’s drug use is not just experimentation. The age at which most young adults begin experimenting with drugs and alcohol is getting younger and younger as the years go on. Many young adults say the first time they drank was as early as 11. If these young adults become problem drinkers, more than likely they will begin to see consequences by the time they get to high school.

Our Drug and Alcohol Treatment Program Specifically for young adults.
Newly Sober Young Adults or those needing to be in a sober and controlled environment have specific challenges that are often overlooked by traditional transitional programs, sober living environments and educational settings. The Sober College response comes in the form of our integrated curriculum, which frames the program for delivering life skills to participants.
The Five Core Competencies:
- Sobriety - a life free of mind and mood altering substances;
- Life Skills - ability to manage stress and daily challenges;
- Productivity - advancement in vocation and/or education;
- Emotional Intelligence - effective management of feelings and emotions;
- Fitness - being of sound mind and body.
The Concept of Sober College is based on three core ideas:
- Age Specific Treatment - Treatment and recovery for young adults is more effective when they are surrounded by others their same age.
- Environment - Given the right environment, young adults will respond positively.
- Time - The longer a young adult can be in a treatment environment, the better the chances for lasting success.
