Questions people ask about Urban Dreams/SAFE

What programs does Urban Dreams/SAFE offer?

They offer outpatient. Which one fits is usually decided by how much structure the first few weeks need, and Des Moines has 8 other centers within 14 miles.

Is detox part of what Urban Dreams/SAFE offers?

No. The nearest place that does offer one is in Des Moines, under a mile away.

What ages does Urban Dreams/SAFE treat?

Is there anything in Des Moines besides paid treatment?

Des Moines has 13 free AA meetings as well, which is not treatment but costs nothing and needs no referral.

Is there a residential program at Urban Dreams/SAFE?

Outpatient only. Nobody stays overnight, so the week is built around appointments you travel to in Des Moines.

Are there other centers close to Urban Dreams/SAFE?

8 other centers are within about 14 miles, the nearest of them a few streets away in Des Moines.

How long does treatment take?

Programs are sold in blocks and recovery does not work in them, which is the tension inside this question. Where a plan approves days in batches, the length you start with is not necessarily the length you get. Ask what the program length is and what happens if more time is needed.

Will my treatment be kept private?

Confidentiality here is unusually strong by law, and that is a different thing from nobody noticing. Who sees a record inside a program is also limited, usually to the team treating you. Call (844) 822-5800 if you would rather ask these questions before giving a center your name.
