Opiate Detoxification:
The ARF uses both suboxone and methadone to assist in managing opiate withdrawal symptoms. These medications enable us to provide a detoxification from opiates in a non-hospital setting that minimizes withdrawal symptoms from highly addictive opiates. These medications in conjunction with the other supportive services provided greatly increase the retention of clients in this population.

Bilingual Services:
The staff at the ARF provides services to those speaking Spanish in their native language. This includes both individual and group services. Specialized residential services may also be available to those speaking Spanish.

Recovery is an ongoing process and the ARF provides hope that change is possible and with additional services the individual’s physical, emotional, spiritual and family life will heal from the damage of their addiction.
