 TO
PROVIDE A CARING ENVIRONMENT WITH STRUCTURE AND SELF-DISCIPLINE
FOR CONTINUED RECOVERY WHEN A CLIENT IS MOST VULNERABLE
TO RELAPSE.
That’s the purpose behind Kinnic Falls. And
total recovery is the goal. Too often, in early recovery,
some try to focus on a single problem such as resolving
a legal difficulty, repairing a marriage or relationship,
or finding a job.
While Kinnic Falls does provide assistance, guidance
and counseling to resolve specific difficulties, the
PRIMARY EMPHASIS is to assist the clients
in establishing their own personal recovery programs.
The program is simple and straight-forward. Our relapse
prevention specialists know that relapse is a process
marked by predictable and identifiable warning signs.
The Kinnic Falls staff teach and support the clients
to recognize and manage the warning signs. In addition,
Kinnic Falls provides a structured and caring environment
to help one cope and effectively deal with life in
sobriety.
The pain of relapse is well known. Many chemically
dependent individuals and their loved ones have experienced
it. But the miracle of recovery is a gift well worth
the extraordinary lengths required to accomplish that
life-changing goal.
