Chemical Dependency Treatment &
Recovery Support
Traditionally, CADS has provided treatment
and recovery services to clients referred from the criminal
justice system. However, our programs, detailed below, welcome
men and women from various walks of life and cultural backgrounds
who lack the financial resources to pay for treatment. Find
out how to apply for admission into a CADS program here.
CADS Programs Include: Detoxification
In Santa Clara and Alameda Counties, CADS provides safe, humane
detoxification monitored by highly qualified staff 24 hours
a day, 7 days a week. During the detoxification process,
the client and counseling staff develop a stabilization treatment
plan, which includes the goals of safely stabilizing the client
while introducing them to recovery principles. Lengths
of stay are based on individual progress and physical status.
Detoxification clients are encouraged to engage in longer-term
treatment, thus increasing their chances for maintaining abstinence
in the future.
Residential Treatment
CADS' Inpatient Residential Treatment program offers
comprehensive education, support and structure for those seeking
to recover from addiction and alcoholism. Participants live
at one of our residential treatment facilities during this
program and participate in a combination of group counseling,
educational groups and individual counseling. Lengths of stay
are individualized and fit the requirements of referring parties
when appropriate. Typically, Residential Treatment lasts 30-60
days, after which clients transition to a less-structured
level of care.
Outpatient Treatment
The CADS Outpatient Program gives clients the opportunity
to interact with the real world environment while still benefiting
from a peer-oriented, structured therapeutic program. Clients'
progress is assessed regularly by clinical staff and referral
source to determine the length of the program for each participant.
Safe, supportive living in our sober living homes is highly
recommended during outpatient treatment.
Family Program
CADS emphasizes the importance of family involvement
in treatment, not only for the addict/alcoholic, but so that
individual family members affected by a loved one's substance
abuse receive education and counseling to help them begin
their own recovery. CADS has found that family members
need social support and education regarding the various aspects
of chemical dependence. Our educational family program,
designed to help family members and significant others develop
their own recovery tools, takes place on Wednesday
nights.
Sober Living/Transitional Housing
Research conducted
by CADS has shown that clients who engage in a longer-term
recovery program have significant increases in lengths of
sobriety, overall quality of life, and financial status
than those who complete more intensive levels of care without
follow-up. One of the goals of chemical dependency treatment
is to assist individuals in becoming self-sufficient. Our
sober living environments are safe, clean, drug-free homes
from which clients begin interacting with the community, looking
for employment (or continuing at their current job), and further
developing their network of recovery support. SLEs are structured
so that clients continue to attend community-based self-help
groups, working on their personal recovery in conjunction
with reintegrating into society.
Aftercare
Recovery is an ongoing process, and it is important for
clean and sober people to have lasting support. Our lifetime
Aftercare program consists of peer-run groups available for
CADS clients who have completed Residential or Outpatient
programs. These groups are facilitated by individuals knowledgeable about
the issues addicts and alcoholics face as they integrate into
society. Aftercare allows clients to expand their network
of peer support, share common experiences, and provide helpful
feedback to one another.
