Residential Program
Damon House is designed to treat individuals who have significant social and psychological problems. The goals of treatment are to promote abstinence from substance use, criminal anti-social behavior, and to effect change in consumers’ lifestyle, attitudes, and values, using the treatment community as a therapeutic agent.
At Damon House, we view these problems as affecting the whole person. Individuals that are placed in this level of care typically have multiple deficits, which are usually substance use and related disorders, criminal activity, impaired functioning, and disaffiliation from family, significant others as well as society in general.
