About The Salvation Army Adult Rehabilitation Center Atlanta
Located just blocks away from the heart of downtown Atlanta, Georgia is The Salvation Army Adult Rehabilitation Center. This is a faith based program that serves adults who want to make a lasting change in their lives after struggles with drug or alcohol abuse.
You have a safe place to live, work with counselors and mentors, and move through a treatment track that puts you at the center of your recovery journey.
The end goal is to help you build the skills to lead an independent life while mending broken relationships with your loved ones. The program is free, though you might be on a waitlist if you enroll, as they are often at capacity.
Work Therapy for Addiction
One of the hallmark programs of The Salvation Army's Adult Rehabilitation Center is their work therapy program. This program allows you to build job readiness skills by working at their thrift shop located at the same address. You get the opportunity to practice socialization skills and time management and to become an overall productive member of society.
With the help of mentors and other peers, this experience helps you transition into life with the skills you need to succeed, and you get work experience to put on your resume.
Addiction Recovery Through Faith
This nationally recognized faith based nonprofit weaves fellowship into treatment. You follow the traditional 12 steps, have access to Christian education, and receive traditional counseling to work through your addiction struggles.
By leaning on your faith, you'll learn how to relinquish power in situations where you might feel out of control. This will support you in overcoming experiences that might feel like they're too much for you to bear alone.
Music and Art Therapy Programs
Other services here include music and art therapy programs, which allow you to connect with yourself in a more creative way. These therapies provide a slower pace to recovery, allowing you to explore activities that help you calm your thoughts while promoting productive habits.
