Ready to leave a facility?
Then you’ve made it around the first turn in an important
journey. The road ahead offers great reward. If you stay alert
and determined, the stand that you’ve courageously made can become permanent.
Strength and faith helped get alcohol or other drugs out of your system. Now
you want to get on with it; get started on this new way of life.
Every day hopeful men and women leave inpatient treatment, detoxes or
other facilities convinced they have changed- but at home they find everything
else has stayed the same. Many of those connections need to be restored, and
some probably need to be re-arranged or ended. Heartbreak, guilty feelings and
social influence can be serious trouble for a new way of life. The skill and
insight needed get through such difficulty takes practice.
The New Life Launch Pad is an intentional society that offers you
understanding and immediate connections in a recovery network. We know you
will be confused about what to expect and how to behave now that you are
substance-free. It can be like having ‘adolescent’ feelings in
‘grown-up’ relationships. Our staff, managers and mentors coach
motivated residents to develop and practice new ways of being, before going
home for good.
The Next Step After a Facility;
Structured Living Alternative
The Launch Pad system provides a structured living alternative
complemented by an array of other services. Like traditional half-way house living,
our “Launch Pads” (group residences) are supportive of 12-step
recovery. Through house meetings, house customs and attendance in a program
of the individual’s choice, personal-inventory, self-support and service
become new lifestyles. To get effectively oriented in the year-long program new
residents may choose between Standard and Signature levels of care.
These are choices made after screening and an inventory of your personal
history and circumstances. After the intake interview Signature Program participants
attend evening workshop-modules once weekly. This faciliitated group setting allows
and encourages self-awareness related to the disease model of addiction, . behaviorist theories
and spiritual approaches. All
residents follow the same rules and requirements, and earn the same benefits by
faithfully following their programs. Applications may be submitted on the contact page. |
