Individuals who enter our program must be willing to make the necessary changes to become productive members of the community.historically, many of our day by day clients have spent time on the streets, were in gangs or served time in prison. Others had families and stable jobs. Regardless of their circumstances, their addiction to drugs and alcohol has affected their health, made them homeless or in danger of being homeless. (statement continues on schedule o)our program is built around the philosophy of responsibility and reflection. The services provide a safe place to build self-esteem, make positive changes, and learn to live a sober life. We offer an array of therapeutic services to day by day clients. For men, the treatment program will follow a series of stages in an outpatient setting, with housing available. The women's program will use a unique program to meet their special needs, including a trauma group that promotes a strength-based approach where awareness of trauma as a trigger helps them to develop coping mechanisms. Clients will be encouraged to follow a structured treatment program and participate in relapse prevention group as well as outside meetings in the community. The day by day program provides residents with the opportunity to look at their past behaviors and, upon awareness, helps them to make the appropriate changes in their lives. Day by day provided services for 171 men and women.
