Directions
The DeKalb Addiction Clinic (DAC) provides comprehensive outpatient
and intensive outpatient substance abuse treatment services addressing
the social, psychological, physical and spiritual components of
recovery through education, counseling, coping skills and life skills
development.
Intensive Outpatient Day Services are offered at DAC including the
New Vision's Women's Program. Evening Intensive Outpatient Treatment
is also available at DAC.
DeKalb Addiction Clinic views addiction as a disease affecting all
aspects of a persons life, including family and significant
others. Family involvement in the treatment process is encouraged.
Our programs promote the development of new life skills to maintain
abstinence and support recovery.
All consumers
receive a nursing assessment, standard lab work, and drug/alcohol
screening once admitted. Random drug and alcohol screenings occur
throughout treatment. A psychiatric assessment is also completed,
and medications are prescribed if warranted. HIV education, testing,
and referral are provided at all substance abuse programs through
an HIV risk-reduction specialist.
Affiliated 12
step fellowship meetings are available at DeKalb Addiction Clinic
and at Clifton Springs Mental Health
Center for consumers and the community.
