Impact might be the only treatment center in the world that tells you the truth about the disease of alcoholism/addiction: the fact you can recover, and live a full enjoyable life. The staff at impact wants you to get well and since getting out I have a solid foundation and no excuse to replace again because of the work done in 35 days and the foundation that was built. I owe my life to impact. From admissions, mentors, to the owners I cannot say enough about the role they played in my recovery with a problem I ve been dealing with for 16 years.

If you or your loved one is experiencing difficulties in overcoming addiction to drugs or alcohol or just with life in general, I highly recommend calling Chad or Adams. I recently spent about 65 days in Alabama and experienced a life-changing and life-saving miracle. Even if you do not struggle with addiction of drugs or alcohol, these men share lessons that EVERYONE needs to learn and incorporate into their lives. It took me 38 years and living in the middle of nowhere Alabama to finally find legitimate peace and happiness. Impact is an appropriate name because these guys changed my life and I will forever be grateful to them. It truly helped me put life into perspective.This program is not just about overcoming an addiction, it is a new way of life. We dive deep into a self-examination, finding what drives our thoughts and behavior, finding our purpose in life and walking through the steps to discovering ourselves and our God-given mission in life. Through the gracious love and support of my family, I was forced to enter treatment. Not only did the members of Impact help me to identify myself as an alcoholic (I did not admit it before), but now I consider myself a grateful alcoholic as I would not have been able to experience this life-saving program otherwise. I've developed a fellowship of men that I will keep in touch with for the rest of my life. I have a wife and 2 kids at home and was the sole provider. Yet we still made it work through the love and support of my family. While I understand others are in much more difficult circumstances, I merely offer this as a suggestion to please not make excuses and get the help you need. Not only for you, but for your family and loved ones so that you can live happily in the moment, and show up as the son, husband, or father that you were called to be.Impact has two phases: one phase is around 35 days in Odenville while the second phase (upon successfully completing phase 1) is located in Birmingham. While I was initially skeptical at staying another 30 days in Alabama in "Phase 2," I highly recommend it as it served as a great transition of experiencing obstacles but being able to work through them thoughtfully with staff and residents.

In 2018 I went to a rehab for the first time and left without really grasping the message behind the 12 steps. After struggling to recover my own way for 6 years, I realized it wasn't working. I finally got in touch with Adams and I could tell he had something I could get on board with.Nervous and afraid of what I was getting myself into, I got on a plane to Alabama to check into Impact recovery. When I landed in Birmingham, Adams was right there to greet me at the airport, which showed how much he truly cares. I was driven to the facility by a member of his staff and greeted by other residents upon my arrival. The residents assured me that I was in a good place, and took me in with open arms. After no more than a week, I felt completely comfortable and was immersed in the 12 steps of recovery. Rehab is never easy, but Impact has a way of challenging you to be the best version of yourself, not only for your family/friends, but for YOU.Through the ups and downs of growth, I found myself healing, and adopting a completely new and positive perspective on life. For the first time in a long time I found a sense of happiness, I truly did not believe I would ever feel. I met great friends and mentors, who I now trust with my life.I came to Impact to recover from my addiction to alcohol. I had no idea I would be leaving here not only recovered, but as happy as I've ever been in my entire life.Impact saved my life. Thank you!

Other Forms of Payment

Self-pay involves paying for treatment out of your own pocket. You can use savings or credit, get a personal loan, or receive help from family and friends to fund your treatment. If you don't have insurance or your insurance plan doesn't cover a specific program, self-pay can help ensure you still get the care you need.

Private insurance refers to any kind of healthcare coverage that isn't from the state or federal government. This includes individual and family plans offered by an employer or purchased from the Insurance Marketplace. Every plan will have different requirements and out of pocket costs so be sure to get the full details before you start treatment.

Addiction Treatments

Levels of Care

Aftercare Support

Rehab aftercare programs are designed to provide support to you after completing an addiction treatment program. These programs are highly customized and evolve with your changing needs. You'll partner with staff at the treatment center to identify any specific medical, behavioral, and social services needed to support your sustained sobriety. Aftercare services may include peer coaching, career counseling, and other personalized support.

12-Step

12 step programs are often considered the standard model for addiction recovery. They're based on the use of spiritual principles to support a gradual psychological, emotional, and spiritual shift to remediate the root causes of one's addiction. Treatment depends primarily on per coaching (sponsorship) and group recovery meetings. Though rooted in spiritual principles, participants do not need to be religious and sessions are non-denominational. Specialized groups, including meetings for seniors, teens, and family members, are often available.

Clinical Services

During family therapy, you'll address the impact that addiction has had on the family unit. Family therapy fosters open communication between members to help resolve conflicts and create a supportive environment. This helps to improve relationships and therefore aids in the recovery process.

Life skills are an essential part of addiction recovery. These skills help you succeed in day to day life and live independently. They fall into three main categories: interpersonal skills, thinking skills, and self awareness. Treatment involves developing these skills for a successful recovery.

I was barely hanging on to life before I went through impact. When I was unable to help myself, the staff went well out of their way to make sure I got the help I needed from their program and beyond it.As someone who had never even considered recovery or even the 12 steps, they made me feel like I was still exactly where I needed to be - and I was. The staff is a collection of role models for how to live life. They all had something I had been missing my entire life and helped me achieve that.If you re new to the recovery process or just feel lost in the cycle of alcoholism or addiction I couldn t recommend calling Josh or Adam s from Impact enough. There s a good chance picking up the phone and talking to them will save your life, it certainly saved mine. Recovery is an uncomfortable process, but the guys there helped guide me day by day to get through it. The environment there is extremely positive with great counseling, food, and extra curricular activities as a bonus. It s a beautiful place to learn how to really live life and I m eternally grateful for all of them!

Impact goes above and beyond for the clients that come through their doors. They meet clients where they're at but encourage them not to sit in that place for too long. There is no Recovery Center is the Southeast region that is providing men the tools needed for long term sobriety like Impact. The groups are broken off into small units of 3-4 clients in each group which makes it feel personal and individualized. The owner, Adams, as busy as he is, is ALWAYS on campus on Mondays facilitating step 1 groups. Shawn, the Culinary Expert has moved mountains to ensure every client receives a quality meal that meets their dietary needs. If you're struggling with trauma, grief, loss, or clinical depression, you will be able to work with Dana and Kathleen in a therapeutic role. They will meet with you multiple times per week so you get what you need.Their Executive Director, Chad Lentscher, is one of the humblest men I've ever met. He has put together a rockstar team.I could go on and on but if you or someone you know is struggling with alcoholism or addiction. Call Adams Pritchard and Josh Dikis and they will do whatever they can to get you in and present you with a second chance at life.Thanks for all you do Impact!

Impact is a place of intentionality in all decisions. It s a place to get well and to experience what it really means to live a better life. After having gone through multiple treatment centers I was at my with-ends. I told the admissions line this was my last hoorah and they understood. They put everything they had into giving me the tools to live free from substance abuse disorder. I was told one day we want to give you some direction in life as my mentor said. I feel that I have received that direction and I just hit another mile stone in sobriety. Impact is the greater good of men doing the will of God. It saved my life, it can save yours too.

My time at Impact Recovery Center was nothing short of incredible. I can honestly say that it saved my life. From all of the staff to the owners Adams and Chad. I was welcomed with open arms and it is nothing short of a miracle that I found this place. The staff really wants to see you succeed and sets you up to make huge progress as long as you do the work needed. I was able to finish all twelve steps while I was there and now am sponsoring other men. I was afraid at first, but the acceptance I received and the attention to detail every staff member gave me, made it easy for me to succeed while there. These guys made recovery enjoyable for me, something I never knew was possible. I reccomend this place to anyone out there that is in need for help, and I can t wait to be back for alumni events!

Impact Recovery is a great place to go if you re interested in a 12-step based recovery. Whether it s your first time trying to get sober or have relapsed and need a fresh start into your recovery,Impact will give you the tools you need. All of the staff (except licensed therapist) work a 12 step program themselves and have extensive knowledge of the big book. Even the owners are very hands on and conduct groups themselves which is different from any other place I ve been. The mentors only mentor a few guys at a time, so they have the time for a personal one on one experience with their guys as well as the groups. The people here really do care about every person and are willing to do anything to help you find God, stay sober, and live a life as a productive member of society and the recovery community.

Impact Recovery completely changed my life. The methodologies taught by the highly knowledgeable, caring staff guided me to a newfound sense of inner peace. I was freed from my addiction and shown not only how to live without substances but how to experience the joy of thriving in sobriety.I was apprehensive and extremely anxious to enter treatment, but the Impact folks made me instantly feel at ease. The wide open, beautiful natural facilities, camaraderie, guidance, love and support helped me to overcome the most deep-seated, powerful issues in my life and unearth many hard, but invaluable truths about myself. I no longer live in fear or anger thanks to Impact. I have confidence, clarity and solace.If you are considering treatment for yourself or a loved one, please join the Impact community of recovered men and women and realize a holistic recovery. There is no other program like it.Thank you Adams, Chad, Colby, Jacob, Moody, Tanner, Kathleen, Dana and Dustin (and the whole Impact community)!
