HUGS Recovery Center - Humanity United with God for Society

They provide outpatient and telemedicine. Whichever one you start at the usual pattern is to step down through the levels rather than stop at once, and Riverdale is the closest place to carry that on if you move.

They do not detox. Withdrawal from alcohol or benzodiazepines in particular is a medical event, and the closest place set up for it is in Atlanta, about a mile away.

They offer a program for veterans, which is worth confirming on the call rather than assuming. A named program and one with a place free this month are different things, and Atlanta has 8 other centers to ask.

8 other centers are within about 14 miles, the nearest of them about a mile away in Atlanta.

They do not prescribe. If buprenorphine or methadone is part of what you need, say so on the call and ask who they refer to in Atlanta.

They treat both. A diagnosis left untreated while the substance use is treated is the usual reason a first attempt does not hold, and Riverdale is the nearest place to try instead if this one does not fit.

It is common, and a program that takes referrals will know exactly what the court expects. Attendance records are the usual thing reported, and the content of the sessions usually is not. Keep your own record of every session attended.

The levels run from a weekly appointment up to a residential bed, with two useful steps in between. The higher level is not automatically the better one, and being placed above what you need is its own problem. Ask for an assessment before anybody recommends a level of care to you.
