A key component of sustainable recovery, is accountability. Through monitoring our client’s sobriety with random drug and alcohol tests, we can give them a concrete reason to stay sober and, in the event of relapse, we can identify the issue early on and help our individuals get back into treatment right away.

Prevention and Education

 

Tessie Cleveland Community Services HOPE program prevention and education services highlight the dangers of drug use, reinforce self-esteem, and educate teens and adults to make positive choices. We provide these services in a variety of settings and ways, including research-based curricula in public and private schools, presentations at community centers, outreach services at local churches and health fairs. Our prevention program gives young people and their families the education and skills needed to avoid substance use/abuse and to take control of their lives. Services are offered to parents and high-risk youth involved in the child welfare and juvenile justice system. Our goal is to bring awareness to the community through outreach and engagement and family inclusion events and activities.

​

  • Prevention programs foster academic achievement, avoidance of addictive substances, improved social and emotional behaviors, and stronger positive relationships with peers, teachers and parents.

​

  • Our program creates community awareness regarding the consequences of substance use and abuse for alcohol (underage drinking), marijuana, tobacco and prescription drugs.
