Total Recovery Now
TRN We believe that compassion is a circle of care in which clients, peers, families and professionals join hands. Healing takes place within that circle. Our culture is strong in building external family systems and supports. Clients, alumni and our staff come together to celebrate the joys of living a sober and clean lifestyle. This means when treatment ends our relationship doesn't. As long as you remain committed to recovery, come back whenever you need us.

Total Recovery Now is grounded in the unshakable conviction that individuals, families and communities can recover from the diseases of alcoholism and addiction in all their forms when immersed in a compassionate yet disciplined environment that combines known medical models with innovative, dignified teaching methods leading to self-fulfillment, gainful employment and responsible social participation.

Recovery is a process that works best nested in a community of others committed to recovery. Take the message home and let the ripple effect bring new life to all our communities! Building a strong foundation is vital for long-term sobriety. Total Recovery Now would like to encourage you to participate in our aftercare and alumni programs.

 

Join the celebrations we'll continue to have. Join our recovery family for festivities like holiday ceremonies and annual awards that celebrate client and alumni  milestones-whether it's a marriage, a job or a new addition to your family.
