(For adults aged 60 and over with substance abuse issues)
We are committed to serving seniors aged 60 years and older who have substance
abuse issues. Because we believe families should be part of the recovery
process when possible, we offer services for family members and significant
others affected by substance use. Our goal is to provide services that will
identify and address substance abuse issues, other life issues and bring
positive change to the lives of seniors.
- Adults, 60 years of age or older, with a substance
abuse problem or who are experiencing family difficulties due to a loved
one's substance use
- Individuals living in Avon, Berlin, Bristol, Burlington,
Farmington, New Britain, Plainville, Plymouth, Southington, Glastonbury,
East Hartford, Manchester, Rockville, South Windsor and Vernon
- Up to three outreach sessions are offered initially
to determine the appropriate level of care needed and participant willingness
- Assessments and referrals
- Individualized treatment planning
- Individual, family, group counseling and support
groups focusing on the substance abuse and other life issues
- Community outreach to local agencies and families
