About Great Lakes Recovery Centers Womens New Hope House
The Women's New Hope House provides clinically managed detox and residential treatment for up to 22 women. This center is located in Sault Ste. Marie, Michigan and has been operating since 1988.
Residents can bring their children up to age 11 to live with them during treatment.
Social Detox in Sault Ste. Marie
At the Women's New Hope House, clients are able to access withdrawal management services. They use the social detox model meaning clients aren’t given prescription medication.
Each resident gets a withseral assessment to ensure they’re a good fit for social detox and don’t have a risk of complications. During your stay, your symptoms will be carefully monitored. You’ll learn coping strategies and will make plans for treatment after detox.
Community Residential Treatment for Michigan Parents
I like that the Women's New Hope House provides a home-like, community setting for recovery. Staff are available 24/7 to support you during early recovery.
Bedrooms are cozy and feel like home. The suites have the necessary furniture to accommodate clients with dependent children. Hallways and common rooms have colorful art and murals.
Children up to age 11 can come with their parent to treatment. While parents are in treatment, young children will spend time at the on-site child care. School-aged children will attend school. I appreciate that staff will help with enrollment.
Kids that are between 5-11 years old will have weekly one-on-one counseling to support them with their goals.
Supportive Environment for Addiction Recovery
This facility is a low-security residence. Clients are given accountability and trust.
Clients get 40 hours a week of group services. There are different presenters that speak to a broad range of topics like nutrition, women’s health, exercise, parenting, living in balance and seeking safety.
Residents participate in communal meals and daily living activities to help them develop a strong support network for lifelong recovery.
I really like that from the first day of treatment, clients begin thinking about their return home. With the help of staff, you’ll brainstorm and plan how to successfully transition back to your community.
As you transition out of care, you’ll get the needed referrals to help you maintain support. This could include Michigan Works, local housing offices, AA/NA meetings and more.
