Minnesota Drug Rehab
Minnesota drug rehab programs don't have to be expensive. The Retreat has developed an innovative and cost effective model to help people recover from alcoholism and drug addiction. This supportive educational a pproach has proven to be so effective that it is now being replicated in other communities.
A typical Minnesota drug rehab center uses a medical model which can cost tens of thousands of dollars. The Retreat's spiritual approach uses the 12 steps and the power of the community to help people recover from their alcoholism or chemical dependency.
There is a rich tradition of drug rehab in Minnesota. People have been coming here to get sober for over 60 years. The Twin Cities has one of the most vibrant recovering communities in the country. There are over 500 sober living beds in St Paul alone. Most are within a few miles of each other. There is a level of accountability here that you just don't find many places.
The Retreat harnesses the power of the vibrant recovering community of Minneapolis and St Paul by using a network of over 300 volunteers to help carry the message to our guests. Along with our experienced staff, these volunteers give guidance and support to people seeking to establish a firm foundation of recovery grounded in the Twelve Steps. We take people who are motivated for change, and surround them with those that are living recovery at the highest level.
"There is a special chemistry when one addict is helping another for fun and for free" said John Leonard, Director of Marketing at The Retreat. "These volunteers carry a message based on their own experience and they do it with passion and enthusiasm." Not only do they help keep the cost down, but they serve as powerful examples of what a contented life in recovery can be like, and what it takes to recover. "There is an attitude of we are all in this together and you just don't find that in most Minnesota drug rehab programs" said Leonard.
In a staff based Minnesota drug or alcohol rehab rehab, you don't have the benefit of the collective wisdom available in a community based approach. Although some Minnesota drug rehab centers use volunteers in their program, they are not usually the direct agents of change. At The Retreat the volunteers are the primary teachers of the recovery message.
The Retreat was founded by industry professionals with long term recovery and many years of experience in the field. The entire staff at The Retreat is in recovery. When you call our admissions office, you will get someone on the phone who knows where you are coming from because they have been there.
At The Retreat, we strive to improve the quality of life for individuals, families and communities affected by alcohol and drug dependency. Although we are not a drug treatment center we provide a viable alternative to drug treatment and Minnesota drug rehab at a fraction of the cost.
If you are looking for a Minnesota drug rehab, call us today. Let us show you how we have recovered. If The Retreat is not the right place, we can recommend a Minnesota drug rehab or alcohol treatment that will better suit your needs.
The Retreat is not a replacement for medical treatment. We do not serve people who need a clinical treatment experience.
