Being local means that your family can be actively involved with your treatment so that you don’t have to feel alone. Family members are encouraged to attend counseling sessions with their loved one so that can the healing process can begin.

  4. Building local connections

    During your treatment you’re going to meet a lot of different people who are going through the same things you are. After your therapy is concluded it is encouraged for you stay connected with these people and continue to provide support to one another. Life long friendships are made during therapy. Living locally can make them easier to maintain.

  5. Home visits

    If you are in an inpatient rehab center the program might allow you build privileges that might allow visits home for holidays and other events that are important.
