They closed but it was so cool, they used to take you to outdoor activities, you got to make music and art! The staff was made up mostly of former addicts, so they were very supportive and understanding of your situation.

food is trash but what to you expect, bring you're own pillow and blanket if you can the stuff they give you is worse than bob barker. i`d buy the pillow and blanket brand new if you can or they might not allow you to bring it in they wash all used items you bring in so if its some huge comforter leave it at home I doubt that will slide. think small if you cant buy brand new. they have TVs with DVD players and movies to skim though, had roku while I was there may or may not still be around. there is a smoking section, you go as a group every couple hours. buy brand new packs of cigs before you enter open packs are not allowed. Other than those obvious flaws, flaws you would find everywhere. the staff were respectful and caring. This place is doing its part in saving peoples lives the staff are nice as long as you make an effort, they know you are going though a tough time you won't be forced to do anything if you don't want to, could be 7 days in bed only need to get up to do meds and heart rate readings. Would recommend to anyone.

This place is trash!!! If you are really really trying to get your s**t together I would rethink!!!! The staff lacks severe communication and our not trained for this type of work it's just a job for them all staff should be in recovery so they can related and honestly help you cope with your addition. The staff treats you as you're a prisoner at war and it should not be like that as you're already at war with yourself. Homeless people take advantage of the situation and are not their for intentional purposes!I give this place 0 stars . just say No!!

This was supposed to be a 24/hr facility, helping those in need within the community. Their phones aren t answered after hours, and no one seems to be at the facility. Hours online have been changed to 9pm so forget having an issue overnight. Only option was the Emergency Room which is not what they are designed for. Poor management and obviously the folks here do not wish to actually help those who are suffering.

Although I didn t get it the time I came through. This was one of the most life saving places, with nice amenities, and cared about getting me in when I was homeless. It took effort on my part to get a bed date, but it should. One of the only places in the state that will take you with no insurance and medical. A lot of the ugly reviews, unfortunately, probably are displaying the not so good side of addiction; me first, me only, and my way .. so. If you get a spot, use it, it s a blessing, because trust me it s a lot better than the jail house floor or worse.

I went to the dunnica location. I was almost in but apparently I test positive for covid. They told me to come back in 14 days. I came back after 14 days and they have no space for me even though they told me to come back in 14 days. If I don't get clean by the 19th I'm going to jail. Theysaid the 20th was open. They lied to me. I trusted them and now I'm going to end up in jail. Lies, Lies, Lies.
