A Focused Path to Recovery
Impact Recovery Center offers a singular, intensive program designed to guide men through the 12 Steps and build a solid foundation for a new way of life. The journey is supported by aftercare options to ensure long-term success.
Program Length: 35 Days
The core of Impact's offering is a 35-day residential program where clients live on-site and are fully immersed in a "spiritual program of action." The curriculum is intensely focused on taking men through all 12 Steps, supplemented by individual counseling, group sessions, and community-building activities. This structured approach aims to foster a profound personal and spiritual transformation.
Impact recognizes that addiction affects the entire family. Once a resident completes a specific step in their recovery course, the program facilitates family sessions. These meetings allow loved ones to engage with the client and their counselor, fostering understanding, healing broken trust, and establishing a healthy support system for the future.
Recovery is a lifelong journey. Impact provides a clear path forward through its "Impact Transitions" sober living program and a vibrant Alumni Center. These aftercare services offer continued structure, accountability, sponsorship, and community events, providing a vital support network to help graduates maintain their sobriety and thrive in their new lives.
