Description
The Chicago Central Adult Rehabilitation Center is a spiritually-based rehabilitation program providing alcohol and drug addiction treatment. The facility houses up to 40 women at a time. Residents stay in the program for six months to a year. The first six months focus on gaining the skills needed to attain and maintain sobriety, with the remainder of the program developing job readiness, relationship, and other life skills. Services include alcohol and drug education, counseling, and 12 step support groups. Spiritual growth, including Bible study, chapel services, and religious counseling, is a key component of the program. All residents participate in work therapy, working full time (unpaid) either on site or at the Salvation Army thrift store in Lincoln Park.
