- Service program
- The Day Program is a twelve-week treatment program for people who want help to address issues related to their alcohol or other drug use. Our team of specialists provide non-judgemental and confidential support through group work and individual support. Our holistic approach means we help with all of the issues that might be contributing to, and maintaining, alcohol and other drug use. Group sessions can help with relapse prevention, detox management, coping strategies, relationship skills, anger management, healthy living and nutrition, mental health, employment readiness and other life skills support. Each person in the program is matched with a case manager who will work with them to identify their goals, and provide practical solutions to make progress towards them. Case managers can also help to coordinate care by engaging with existing healthcare and social services providers, or connecting to new providers.
