Independence Outpatient Alcohol & Drug Abuse Treatment

ALCOHOLISM SERVICES
INDEPENDENCE ALCOHOL OUTPATIENT PROGRAM
Narco Freedom Independence Program provides services directed toward alcohol and other drugs with alcohol being the primary drug of abuse in most cases. The program offers intensive alcoholism counseling and education, family therapy to three populations - alcoholics who are self referral or referred from other area programs (including detoxification centers), alcoholic clients of Narco Freedom's Methadone programs, and individuals who struggle with problems because of the impact of the alcohol abuse of significant others in their lives.

Independence provides clients with an extensive bio-psychosocial assessment, physical examination, individual and group counseling, health and specific HIV education, vocational assessment and referral, nutritional counseling, spirituality groups, and family therapy. Relapse prevention, and twelve step groups enable clients to learn about, enter into, and sustain a recovery program.

As with all Narco Freedom programs the additional support of New Beginnings Community Counseling Center, Neighborhood and Family Community Health Center, Hope Case Management (for people living with HIV/AIDS), and the comprehensive support services of Narco Freedom are easily accessible to any Independence client.

Services are provided by culturally and linguistically appropriate staff in English and Spanish. Staff includes a CASAC program director/family therapist, two MSW/CASACs, an RN, a Psychiatrist, CASAC-T counselors, and clerical support.
