We’d like to be perfectly clear here: successful recovery from substance use disorders, or co-occurring substance use and mental health disorders, requires professional treatment and careful adherence to an appropriate aftercare plan. That said, here is an overview of our success:
- More than 95 percent of clients report that they are learning or have learned the tools necessary for successful recovery
- Over 90 percent report not using drugs and 88 percent report not using alcohol since leaving treatment
- Of clients with both substance use disorders and legal troubles, over 86 percent are free from new legal troubles five years after program admission
- In assessments administered at intake and discharge, improvement was measured in the following symptoms:
- 60 percent decrease in problem anxiety
- 88 percent decrease in problem depression
- 74 percent increase in self-esteem
- 90 percent decrease in Post-Traumatic Stress Disorder
