Text Box: Crossroads’ Turning Points, Inc. has received funding from the Daniels Foundation in the amount of $97,200 to support the Women’s Residential Unit. “The grant will enable our program to offer substance abuse and co-occurring mental health treatment to women who are unable to pay for treatment due to being underinsured or uninsured,” according to Carol Lopez BSW CACIII, Clinical Supervisor.  The Women’s Text Box: Residential Program is designed to remove barriers in accessing treatment for women who lack financial resources and access to child- care.  The program provides evidence based, gender-specific treatment intervention and children may live with their mother during the course of treatment. The staff includes Certified Addictions Counselors, a Licensed Professional Counselor and a Child Development Specialist. Text Box:   Text Box:

 

Text Box: Crossroads' Turning Points, Inc. Happy Holidays Text Box: Newsletter Date December 2009 Text Box: Volume 1, Issue 1 Text Box: Daniels Fund Supports Women’s Treatment Text Box: Crossroads’ Turning Points, Inc. is proud to announce that co-occurring services are now being provided in all of our treatment programs. These services address both substance abuse and mental health issues in an integrated manner during the course of treatment. “It is important to address both substance abuse and mental health issues in order to effectively stabilize the client. By offering integrated services, we negate the possibility of the client  ‘falling through the cracks’ of the treatment system,” according to Christina Leonard LPC, LAC NCC Co-Occurring Coordinator.   “I want to thank you for this program. I am amazed that not only do you get substance abuse treatment; I also received mental counseling, anger management, and domestic violence classes as well. This thirty days has been such a good learning experience for me. I have learned about why people get angry and how substance abuse has to do with the anger. I’ve learned useful information about mental disorders that I never knew about, and the dangers of how self-medicating is so dangerous especially with mental disorders.” Residential Program Client
