Tagwii Outpatient Care

How does our program work?

Recovery is attainable. The treatment program uses the person’s strengths and culture-utilizing a Cognitive Behavioral and Motivational treatment model. This model moves the client into a better life away from alcohol and drugs and towards sober living. Engaging family, friends, and community is an important healing process.

Treatment access is obtained through a completed Assessment. Once assessed the client will be placed in either a low, medium, or high intensity track to begin programming.

Participants will receive consultation and monitoring from counselors, case managers, physicians, spiritual healers, and/or clergy, probation officers and dietitians.

Sobriety Feast

A sobriety feast is held the last Wednesday of each month. Attendees are encouraged to bring potluck for the event, which includes a speaker and a medallion ceremony. Family members and other supportive persons are invited to join the feast.
