STARS (Adolescent Treatment)
CFR’s STARS program offers several treatment options for substance abusing adolescents and their families. CFR’s Adolescent counselors will meet with the adolescent and their family to discuss the appropriate program intensity, treatment schedule and expected length of treatment. Treatment topics include: Substance Abuse/Gambling Education, emotional health, group exercises/activities, role playing, relationship building, and learning the recovery skills necessary to implement and maintain a recovery-based lifestyle. Normally, the residential portion lasts from 30-90 days and the outpatient group portion of treatment lasts 10-16 weeks and may be followed by aftercare. Adolescents are encouraged to attend 12 step meetings to further support their early recovery and help develop a sobriety based support network.
While in treatment, the adolescent’s counselor will schedule individual sessions and/or family sessions to review the adolescent’s and family’s progress in treatment, update/revise treatment plans, discuss discharge planning, answer questions, and discuss family concerns and/or referral options.
