St. Christopher’s Addiction Wellness Center offers hope and help to suffering alcoholics and drug addicts, as well as those with co-occurring disorders, seeking recovery. We offer a variety of treatment services, a continuum of care, for males eighteen and older - and their families – as well as outpatient and referral services for women.
The most unique quality about St. Christopher’s programs for males is this: when one joins the other clients on this recovery journey, he joins the brotherhood. The bond formed between clients that participate in our treatment together – and the alumni who are actively involved as well – is magical. A huge factor in one wanting to stay sober is the connection he makes with his peers. Forming lasting friendships, having fun, being productive, learning how to live, feeling whole – these are things that promote the desire to maintain long-term sobriety. We offer our clients the opportunity to achieve these gifts, if he is willing to surrender, trust the process and embrace recovery. It’s a privilege and a choice…
