Family Education Program
The Family Education Program is a collaborative effort dedicated to providing quality education and support to families of substance users in our community. Currently, we meet virtually. Visit us on Facebook to access meeting links and find out which topics we will cover each week!
We are free and open to anyone with an addicted loved one. Arm yourself with the education, support and resources to cope with a loved one’s substance abuse and make peace with the past and present.
Live at the CARITAS Recovery Residences
We invite men and women at any point during their personal recovery journey to live in one of our safe and affordable apartments. Here in the newly opened CARITAS Center, you will become part of a sober living community that meets the highest state and national standards. You do not have to be a part of The Healing Place program.
During your time here, we will help you save money, foster independence and make plans for your future. Our team will connect you to resources that will enhance your support networks, employment opportunities, self-awareness, and self-esteem.
