Hope and Healing for Drug and Alcohol Abuse

Foundations Recovery Network (FRN) is committed to providing treatment for North Carolina residents who suffer from the disease of addiction and/or mental health disorders. Our dual diagnosis approach to treatment has been proven as a key to successful recovery. Through our co-occurring clinical and psychological treatment coupled with our residential and outpatient treatment programs, clients suffering from substance abuse and mental health issues ranging from anxiety and depression to bi-polar and PTSD are finding the strength to end addiction and begin a new healthy life in recovery.

Integrated Treatment for Co-Occurring Disorders

FRN specializes in the treatment of co-occurring disorders with our proven, comprehensive treatment model, which has been tested and proven through 11 federally-funded research studies. This model demonstrated twice the success rate for continuing sobriety one year post-treatment compared to the national average of traditional programs.

The Foundations Recovery Network Difference

FRN specializes in the treatment of co-occurring disorders with our proven, comprehensive treatment model, which has been tested and proven through 11 federally-funded research studies. This model demonstrated twice the success rate for continuing sobriety one year post-treatment compared to the national average of traditional programs.

We attribute our success to our approach, which includes:

• Integrated Treatment – A combination of mental health services with addiction treatment in one setting, with a team of experts including psychiatrists, social workers, nurses and licensed alcohol and drug counselors each lending their expertise.
• Motivational Approaches – Our clinical staff is trained to use motivational enhancement strategies to engage clients. This field-tested method of implementing client directed services maximizes client engagement and avoids use of outdated confrontational strategies.
• Trained Staff – Our entire team is taught to deliver evidence-based practices of care through classroom and applied studies.
• Client Recovery Workbook Series – A proprietary product developed by us based upon evidence-based practices and our own experiences in treatment, these workbooks provide clients with comprehensive integrated information about how to maximize their recovery experience.
• Client Directed Treatment - Clients are treated as partners in, rather than subjects of, the recovery process. As such, they are encouraged to determine the pace, goals and course of treatment.

There is a difference when it comes to treatment programs, and no program has been proven more compassionate, flexible or effective. With a highly experienced and caring staff, comprehensive treatment facilities and a long-term commitment to helping those with drug and alcohol addictions, FRN provides a full scope of services to meet the needs of persons with co-occurring conditions. Combining our research-based innovations with emerging evidence-based practices, we offer some of the lowest dropout rates in the industry.

For many, pursuing substance abuse treatment far from home provides a clean slate and fewer distractions. We are a national company with programs across several states. Our residential treatment facilities include The Canyon, Michael’s House and La Paloma Treatment Center. We also offer outpatient treatment through Foundations Atlanta as well as Michael’s House and La Paloma.

A Continuous Problem in North Carolina

According to recent data from the National Survey on Drug Use and Health (NSDUH), approximately eight percent of North Carolina citizens ages 12 or older reported using an illicit drug in the past month. Additionally, more than three percent of North Carolina residents reported illicit drug dependence or abuse within the past year.

Marijuana is one of the most commonly abused drugs in North Carolina, and the abuse of prescription narcotics is widespread throughout the state due to the relative ease of acquisition. Crack cocaine distribution networks also present an enormous social threat to North Carolina’s inner city communities, while heroin is mainly confined to the major central and eastern metropolitan centers. Mexican-manufactured methamphetamine, primarily in the crystalline form (Ice), is readily available in the large metropolitan centers of the state, and increasingly in rural communities elsewhere. At the same time, club drugs like Ecstasy (aka MDMA) have increased in popularity across the state and are especially popular with college and high school students.
