About DART Center (DART Cherry Program)

DART Cherry, located in Goldsboro, North Carolina, is also known as the DART Center. It’s a center that treats men who’re on probation or parole and have drug addictions. To get in, you’ll have to be referred by the State Prison System. After your stay with them, you’ll have an easier time getting back to your community and not going back to crime.

Their services use a combination of therapy and holistic care. This means that they’ll be digging into your triggers to address any mental and behavioral disorders. You’ll have a better understanding of your condition and can find better outlets for frustrations without drugs. While you’re in treatment, you’ll be supervised throughout in case any emergencies come up. They don’t offer medications or detox, though. If you need to detox, you’ll be referred to another center nearby. All medical expenses will be your responsibility.

In addition to counseling, you’ll have the chance to learn new skills and healthier ways to deal with your emotions. Your health will improve, and your chances of rearrest or relapse will be much, much smaller when you head home to your loved ones.

There is so much wrong with this place. Most of the staff are bullies on a power trip. They are disrespectful, lazy and very unprofessional. The food, mostly sandwiches of some sort and mostly cold, is served in the smallest portions possible. The counselors are barely approachable and rude when talked to. The fact that the residents there are there because of drug addiction and criminal activity should make the staff think twice about the way they talk to the residents. It's told that once you're there for 4 weeks, visitation is allowed but that isn't the case. Visitation isn't allowed nor are packages from home. The whole place is full of asbestos and the ventilation is non-existent. The program offered is ruined by the rude and unprofessional staff.

Addiction Treatments

Levels of Care

inpatient iconInpatient
Residential treatment programs are those that offer housing and meals in addition to substance abuse treatment. Rehab facilities that offer residential treatment allow patients to focus solely on recovery, in an environment totally separate from their lives. Some rehab centers specialize in short-term residential treatment (a few days to a week or two), while others solely provide treatment on a long-term basis (several weeks to months). Some offer both, and tailor treatment to the patient's individual requirements.
12-step icon12-Step
12-step programs are addiction recovery models based on Alcoholics Anonymous (AA). A number of substance abuse programs (including some drug and alcohol rehab centers) use the 12 steps as a basis for treatment. Beginning steps involve admitting powerlessness over the addiction and creating a spiritual basis for recovery. Middle steps including making direct amends to those who've been hurt by the addiction, and the final step is to assist others in addiction recovery in the same way. 12-Step offshoots including Narcotics Anonymous (NA), Cocaine Anonymous (CA), Dual Recovery Anonymous (DRA), Sex and Love Addicts Anonymous (SLAA) and Gamblers Anonymous (GA).
heart-hands iconIntervention Services
Intervention services can provide customized interventions tailored to the needs of the individual and family. An intervention specialist can design and conduct a drug intervention in North Carolina that encourages the individual to enter treatment in a non-coercive manner. The specialist will meet with the family to plan the intervention, then provide expert insights to guide the process and appropriate follow-up care.
24-hour icon24-Hour Clinical Care
Individuals in early recovery often require 24-hour clinical care in North Carolina. This supervised care typically includes medications to treat specific withdrawal symptoms, which vary based on the substance abused. For example, staff may provide sleep aids to treat insomnia in patients who are addicted to marijuana. For those overcoming a cocaine use disorder, anti-depressants may be prescribed to manage mood swings. Other medications may also be provided to treat addiction-related health issues.

Treatments

The goal of treatment for alcoholism is abstinence. Those with poor social support, poor motivation, or psychiatric disorders tend to relapse within a few years of treatment. For these people, success is measured by longer periods of abstinence, reduced use of alcohol, better health, and improved social functioning. Recovery and Maintenance are usually based on 12 step programs and AA meetings.

There are many types of drug rehab in North Carolina. To receive treatment for addiction, you can choose from many inpatient and outpatient programs. Often, participants start with detox and work through a full continuum of care that continues with ongoing support for long-term recovery.

Opioid rehabs specialize in supporting those recovering from opioid addiction. They treat those suffering from addiction to illegal opioids like heroin, as well as prescription drugs like oxycodone. These centers typically combine both physical as well as mental and emotional support to help stop addiction. Physical support often includes medical detox and subsequent medical support (including medication), and mental support includes in-depth therapy to address the underlying causes of addiction.

Substance rehabs focus on helping individuals recover from substance abuse, including alcohol and drug addiction (both illegal and prescription drugs). They often include the opportunity to engage in both individual as well as group therapy.

Programs

Adult Program
Adult rehab programs include therapies tailored to each client's specific needs, goals, and recovery progress. They are tailored to the specific challenges adult clients may face, including family and work pressures and commitments. From inpatient and residential treatment to various levels of outpatient services, there are many options available. Some facilities also help adults work through co-occurring conditions, like anxiety, that can accompany addiction.
program-for-men thumbnail image
Program For Men
Men face specific challenges and concerns when seeking addiction treatment. Gender-specific recovery programs help them tackle these issues head-on in an environment that's focused, targeted, and distraction-free. It also gives them the opportunity to connect with and learn from other men who have been through a similar journey and can offer support for the next step.
young-adult-program thumbnail image
Young Adult Program
Young adulthood can be an exciting, yet difficult, time of transition. Individuals in their late teens to mid-20s face unique stressors related to school, jobs, families, and social circles, which can lead to a rise in substance use. Rehab centers with dedicated young adult programs will include activities and amenities that cater to this age group, with an emphasis on specialized counseling, peer socialization, and ongoing aftercare.

Clinical Services

Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) is a therapy modality that focuses on the relationship between one's thoughts, feelings, and behaviors. It is used to establish and allow for healthy responses to thoughts and feelings (instead of unhealthy responses, like using drugs or alcohol). CBT has been proven effective for recovering addicts of all kinds, and is used to strengthen a patient's own self-awareness and ability to self-regulate. CBT allows individuals to monitor their own emotional state, become more adept at communicating with others, and manage stress without needing to engage in substance abuse.

Group therapy is any therapeutic work that happens in a group (not one-on-one). There are a number of different group therapy modalities, including support groups, experiential therapy, psycho-education, and more. Group therapy involves treatment as well as processing interaction between group members.

In individual therapy, a patient meets one-on-one with a trained psychologist or counselor. Therapy is a pivotal part of effective substance abuse treatment, as it often covers root causes of addiction, including challenges faced by the patient in their social, family, and work/school life.

Life skills trainings involve all the skills a person must have in order to function successfully in the world. These include time management, career guidance, money management, and effective communication. Truly successful addiction recovery is based on the ability to not only live substance-free, but to thrive. Life skills teaches the practical necessities of functioning in society, which sets clients up for success in life, and therefore sobriety.

Family therapy sessions address the emotional toll that addiction has had on the family unit and individual members. Therapists work with families to develop better coping strategies, which in turn create a stable environment for their loved one's recovery process.

Its sad because my husband said theoretically the program had a really good structure but was implemented so poorly. I understand it has to be difficult for staff at times but I witnessed rudeness and horrible attitudes myself other than what was told to me.

Did the 90 days in fall of 2019. The program basically focuses on Addictive and criminal thinking patterns and the ones who give it a chance will get something out of it. Mr. Ray was my counselor and from day one was fair to all and a good , down to earth counselor. The concerns process was a blast and I can talk all day here but words can't explain the experience you just have to go if given a chance. It's not suppose to be fun ( which it isnt) but given the chance it can have a positive effect. PULL UP!!!

Don't send your love ones here apparently they can't do their jobs properly. How are the individuals capable of getting any drugs. While being admitted into their care. It's absolutely shameful how they're supposed to be an capable, professional business. That's not even properly caring for them. I hope they do better but if not then I hope they'll be shut down.

I completed a 90day inpatient program in 2007. I then moved out of state. I still have a hold on my driver's license because they never sent the paperwork to DMV. It is now 2023, and I still can't get my driver's license because of this

My name is Robbie. I completed this program back in the early 2000 year. To say the least, the staff were very unprofessional, very rude, unknowledgeable about any kind of recovery. From my experience, All activities were based on movies that weren't actually related to recovery, there were paper work to complete, even writing a bio about yourself. And groups talks, most of which pertained of how each person come to be at dart cherry!!! The place was dirty, the staff would lie about you, write false reports, and create an atmosphere that was hardly expectable.. I'm surprised this place is still open. I was in my early 20s when I attended, and today I'm 45!At 45, I'm living my best life, have a wife and a full time job, but nothing ever credited from being at this place they call a recovery center!! It's actually a place to beat the prison system if your lawyer can work a deal for you and get you there... It actually keeps you from going to prison, and then send you home on probation!! If your looking to get clean, by all means, look somewhere else. This is not the place... Just my experience

Counselors don't care about you, and saw staff are just there to push you to fail. A real waste of tax money if you ask me.
