Aftercare Planning

Aftercare Planning for Successful Transitions

The most important part of treatment is aftercare planning. While in treatment, clients have professional and peer support. However, the transition to a lower level of care can be a vulnerable time, and we are committed to providing comprehensive and realistic aftercare plans for each client prior to discharge. These plans include continuing care in all life domains such as individual therapy, group therapy, family therapy, medication management, self-help meetings, community resources and more.
