“To reduce the incidence and effects of alcoholism and drug abuse by providing recovery services to those affected directly and indirectly.”
Project Description and Service Approach
The 45-bed residential substance abuse program utilizes a social model based on the 12-step program and addresses each client’s comprehensive needs. Research supports the efficacy of the social model particularly with indigent populations, in which abstinence from alcohol and other substances is reinforced by peer-support and expectations of personal responsibility. The 12-step model provides a basis for the program but without an explicitly Christian context, providing a broad spiritual component inclusive of various faiths.
The mission of Cache Creek Lodge is to facilitate individual rehabilitation and community reintegration of men struggling with alcoholism and drug abuse with guidance, education and compassionate support. The 45-bed residential substance abuse program utilizes a social model based on the 12-step program and addresses a client’s comprehensive needs. Clients commit to a structured schedule in which they receive individual and group counseling, behavioral therapy, financial literacy and employment training, spiritual counsel, temporary housing, recreational activities, and assistance accessing public and community-based health and social services. In addition to residential treatment services, Cache Creek Lodge runs a 22-bed transitional housing program for clients in various stages of recovery.
