About Friends of Alcoholics

Friends of Alcoholics is a drug and alcohol treatment program for adults with substance use disorder, situated in Jackson, Mississippi. They also provide valuable community resources, such as referrals, volunteer opportunities, and outreach services.

Recovery related services at Friends of Alcoholics include inpatient addiction treatment, sober living, and recovery support meetings.

Residential Substance Use Disorder Treatment
Friends of Alcoholics offer inpatient addiction treatment to adults over 18. Their programs provide an assessment to determine individual needs, individualized treatment plan, counseling, group therapy, education, and recovery support meetings.

Peer Support Meetings
Residents have access to on-site 12-step meetings run by the fellowships of Narcotics Anonymous and Alcoholics Anonymous. This peer-based group provides support to one another through sharing their experiences, working through the 12-steps with a sponsor, and being of service to others in need.

Sober Living
Following treatment, residents may transition to a structured recovery residence. The sober living home requires residents to attend regular 12-step meetings, comply with house rules, secure employment, and take part in household chores. Participants may also be required to take a random drug screening to ensure compliance with the house rules.

Medical briefcase icon 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.

Heart icon Treatment

alcohol iconAlcoholism

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.

drugs iconDrug Addiction

For those seeking help with addiction, a drug rehab in Mississippi offers the necessary care to achieve long-term recovery. Options include inpatient, residential, partial hospitalization, intensive outpatient, and long-term drug rehab in Mississippi.

opium iconOpioid Addiction

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-abuse iconSubstance Abuse

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.

Hand holding medical sign icon Clinical Services

couples-therapy iconCouples Therapy

Whether a marriage or other committed relationship, an intimate partnership is one of the most important aspects of a person's life. Drug and alcohol addiction affects both members of a couple in deep and meaningful ways, as does rehab and recovery. Couples therapy and other couples-focused treatment programs are significant parts of exploring triggers of addiction, as well as learning how to build healthy patterns to support ongoing sobriety.

family iconFamily Therapy

Research clearly demonstrates that recovery is far more successful and sustainable when loved ones like family members participate in rehab and substance abuse treatment. Genetic factors may be at play when it comes to drug and alcohol addiction, as well as mental health issues. Family dynamics often play a critical role in addiction triggers, and if properly educated, family members can be a strong source of support when it comes to rehabilitation.

intervention iconGroup Therapy

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.

mental-health iconIndividual Therapy

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.

Foa is a great place to learn the word of God although I believe they are losing their way they care less and less for the men who are there to receive help and more about the money and free labor they receive from them and I quote from the directors mouth u called us we didn't call u end quote.I think they have lost their way and forgotten the work God has called them to do most of the staff are there to help the men like brother Kevin a godly careing man but most are unbelieving and could care less about the men there in need of help instead of lifting them up they do everything in their power to bring them down and are only there because they can't make it in the real world they lie cheat and steal and could care less about anyone but themselves like Steve oriely and Ronnie gross the powers that be there don't care or don't see this but may God open their eyes.and may God bless the men there who are truly doing gods work I'm not trying to bash foa I just call them like I see them.
