It is a touchy subject, we know. When a young adult child is addicted to drugs and/or alcohol, the entire family suffers. One person’s addiction becomes a family disease. The hurt and frustration, the anger and resentment, the helplessness and hopelessness seem insurmountable. We at Cornerstone of Recovery want you to know you are not alone. There is help and hope…for your young adult and for you.
Accredited by the Joint Commission on the Accreditation of Healthcare Organizations (JCAHO), Cornerstone of Recovery offers a comprehensive and intensive treatment program specifically for the young adult struggling with chemical dependency.
Structured to Meet Needs of Young Adults
While the 12-step process of treatment remains the same throughout Cornerstone’s many programs, the Young Adult Residential program is specifically structured for persons between the ages of 18 and 26. Understanding that this age group faces its own unique set of circumstances, our clinical staff focuses on developmental issues, behavior styles, and energy levels specific to the young adult. Cornerstone will consider admission of 16 or 17 year old individuals to the Young Adult Program if their educational, developmental and behavioral history suggests that they would function better in an adult program as opposed to an adolescent program.
Our Compassionate Staff Understands
With a high success rate for recovery, Cornerstone takes great pride in its Young Adult Residential program and in the loyal team of doctors, nurses, and counselors behind it. Many on our staff are in recovery themselves. They understand firsthand the struggles, the emotions, the fear a patient faces as they enter our doors and they understand firsthand how much more fulfilling life can be embracing recovery.
Attendance at 12-step recovery meetings, both in-house and in the community
Educational programs (i.e. self-management skills, dealing with peer pressure, promotion of financial independence from family members, long-term goals, respectful interaction with authority figures)
