Levels of Care

Outpatient

Outpatient Programs (OP) are for those seeking mental rehab or drug rehab, but who also stay at home every night. The main difference between outpatient treatment (OP) and intensive outpatient treatment (IOP) lies in the amount of hours the patient spends at the facility. Most of the time an outpatient program is designed for someone who has completed an inpatient stay and is looking to continue their growth in recovery. Outpatient is not meant to be the starting point, it is commonly referred to as aftercare.

12-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).

Aftercare Support

Completing a drug or alcohol rehab program shouldn't spell the end of substance abuse treatment. Aftercare involves making a sustainable plan for recovery, including ongoing support. This can include sober living arrangements like halfway houses, career counseling, and setting a patient up with community programs like Alcoholics Anonymous (AA) or Narcotics Anonymous (NA).

Treatment

Alcoholism

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.

Drug Addiction

The goal of drug rehab in Wisconsin is to address drug addiction as a complex issue that involves physical, mental, and relational aspects. During rehab, treatment focuses on each of these areas and gives you the tools you need to achieve and maintain sobriety.

Opioid 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

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.

Clinical Services

Family 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.

Group 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.

TRIGGER WARNING: mentions of verbal and psychological abuse, sexual harassment, and harassment of disabled individuals.Go to the Alano Club in Wrightstown. This is no longer a place of heeling, and redemption.I once deeply loved coming here in the evenings- but lately, the aesthetic has become shallow and a gross disappointment. The double standards allowed/enforced by board members is staggering: one is to be welcoming while working the counter and encourage sales; yet we are greeted by a board member and their puppeteer with absolute disdain and an unwillingness while coupled with a lack a desire to accumulate more sales for the funds of the club. These two individuals have all but pushed out the paying evening crowd who come for sober camaraderie and to play hands of cribbage. The second, and frankly a despicable instance of hypocrisy, this board member approaching and demanding tolerance to allow vagrancy to perch itself within the club; telling fellow paid members of the club that we are to tolerate this double standard, which is disallowed as written in the bylaws. There are two people that are in place as voted positions for running the canteen counter. There is a third, a rather benighted individual, who by posturing as a member of leadership, narcissistically and willfully intimidates, all while they mansplain, and insult those around them. This solipsistic individual was witnessed, both verbally and via digital correspondence, intimidating and controlling an intimate partner, thus cruelly abusing a board member within the club premises. The disparaging comments made by this egotistical individual, have affected members of the club, and this behavior has been condoned, despite numerous complaints. The handling of complaints against this individual is contemptible, and a stark example of what awaits females and meeker individuals who seek a reprieve from this tyrant s projections of self-hatred.The treatment of more feeble individuals, and the handicapped has all but solidified the atmosphere in this hell hole of untrained and unqualified individuals, who seek to use a volunteer position as a position of power to lord over club members instead of putting the clubs interests first.Everyone s journey to sobriety is different, but a board member telling a newcomer and a sponsee to live as they do, clean and free of all substances, while then showing signs of use and confirming said suspicions by revealing to other members their illicit use of illegal substances is deplorable and hypocritical. Ironically, their behavior is comparable to a politician- self loathing and dishonest.The deepest form of their hypocrisy is the laughable 12 tenants they claim to live by: they preach their dogma and in the same breath, completely disregard their program while alienating newcomers, or placing them in comprisable positions; risking the sobriety of others by placing their own power hungry personal interests ahead of the 12 tenants they egregiously claim to have changed their ways.

The last time I was there I was called a Communist and Pathet Lao because I am Hmong. I was very offended. My family along with other thousands of Hmong men, women and children fought and died with the CIA (USA) in the jungles of Laos.

[NOTE: THIS IS NOT A HALFWAY HOUSE. It's a Sober Club!]A good place to go to spend time away from isolated or negative environments that could lead to drinking or using for many who are struggling. Not everyone is perfect and none are ever turned away or discouraged to be there as long as everyone is amicable and not overly obnoxious.You don't have to go to meetings if that makes you uncomfortable, many come just to spend time together and sip coffe or soda and play friendly games of cribbage (great place to learn it!).They have drinks, snacks and pizzas; a TV with an antenna (at present) and the folks that come in for the early part of the day are some of the best though good people come in at all hours. Keep in mind you can't always get along with everyone...This is also a good place to hang out by yourself if you'd rather. No time limit (stay as long as you want!) and the food, snacks and drinks are pretty cheap. If you need a break and want a sober place to hang out, this is a pretty good one. It could be a great "second home" and it *is* to a lot of folks. They could almost always use volunteers (with enough sobriety time under their belts)!One of the best Sober Clubs in the Fox Cities!

I called them yesterday asking for help with someone who is having a problem drinking. This person does not believe in a higher power and they told me that they are doomed to be an alcoholic forever and that I'm a bad support system if I can't help them believe in a god. I don't think someone who needs help should have to compromise their beliefs to get it. If I told a Christian the only way they can get help is if they denounce god that would be wrong.... same with not offering to help because we do not believe.... so horrible
