Above and Beyond Family Recovery Center

Above and Beyond Family Recovery Center is an addiction treatment provider serving adults across Chicago's West Side and other underserved communities.

The center offers outpatient and intensive outpatient programs, peer support, trauma-informed counseling and co-occurring disorder care for people facing addiction, homelessness or unemployment.

Their mission focuses on no-barrier, whole-person recovery ensuring no one is turned away due to inability to pay in a city where access to free, quality addiction care remains limited.

Free Outpatient Addiction Treatment

Above and Beyond provides accessible, no-cost outpatient addiction treatment built around a walk-in model.

Adults can arrive first-come, first-served to begin a psychosocial substance use assessment and connect with licensed counselors and Certified Recovery Support Specialists who bring lived experience to every interaction.

Treatment blends proven approaches like cognitive behavioral therapy, motivational interviewing, the Matrix Model and relapse prevention with mindfulness, SMART Recovery, and 12-step support.

Whole-Person Recovery and Alumni Support

Beyond clinical care, the center integrates housing assistance, employment support, daily meals, ID access and free primary medical care under one roof.

An active alumni program featuring twice-weekly groups, monthly events and proactive check-ins helps members stay connected and supported long after initial treatment ends.
