Welcome to true healing and continued care.
The continuation of care and holistic programming offered by Sanctuary provides the ideal pathway to bring an individual through addiction and to recovery. There is a level of care available here that encompasses all aspects of the disease and focuses on self-development but also community building and real life coping skills so that an “exit” from treatment is never really an “exit. Rather it’s the beginning of a new phase in Recovery, and we’re there with housing and alumni programs to keep making progress. Sanctuary’s clients are typically community members that have been diagnosed with substance use disorder and may have a Co-Occurring Condition.
