Safety Net Recovery se Atlanta

The center provides drug- and alcohol-free apartments in SE Atlanta for men leaving more structured care. It is a step-down option, meaning men move here after residential or inpatient treatment rather than starting here directly. The program opened in 2009, and its typical length is 30 days, according to the center's listed information.

Residents agree to random drug testing and must work, study, or volunteer while living on site. Community meetings, life skills groups, and one-on-one counseling fill the week, and the setting is built around the Twelve Step tradition. If you are calling for a brother or son, then knowing the daily expectations helps you judge whether the structure fits him. The address is listed as 617 Maner Terrace in SE Atlanta.

Safety net recovery se Atlanta programs

Rather than a detox or medical stabilization unit, this is a transitional program. Counseling choices include one-on-one sessions, life skills, relapse prevention, meditation and mindfulness, and Twelve Step facilitation. The program is gender-specific and built around Twelve Step meetings, and on-site support meetings form part of aftercare. When withdrawal care comes first, a detox or residential program is typically the starting point ahead of a step-down like this one.

Aftercare includes drug screening, help with returning to work, and a written relapse prevention plan. Because the program treats alcohol and other substances, including benzodiazepines, the staff should be told about any prescription medicines at intake. When a man arrives from a higher level of care, then the first weeks focus on routine, accountability, and steady meeting attendance.
