Family Reunification & Stabilization

The Family Recovery Program is intended to provide a safe, stable, and supportive environment for a parent or parents who have successfully completed multiple levels of treatment.

NON-CLINICAL SERVICES

The Recovery Council offers prevention services, mental health services, individual and group counseling (with topics including life skills, co-dependency, parenting, and anger management), drug testing, outreach services, substance abuse assessment, substance abuse education, and transportation services.

Prevention & Diversion

Our prevention specialists make a huge impact in our communities by serving hundreds of students, across four school districts, providing classroom education, coalition building, grant writing, collaboration with community partners, and attending and hosting several community events.

The Wave Makers are a coalition of high school students who are dedicated to empowering and inspiring youth to live substance-free. The Wave Makers were established in 2020 and were Pike county’s first youth-led coalition, with a mission to promote kindness and a substance-free lifestyle. The coalition meets regularly to discuss ways to be a positive change in the community and organize and support community service efforts.

The Helping Profession Scholarship is administered by our prevention team and agency to support high school students in Pike and Ross counties who plan to study social work, counseling, and other health and social service-related fields. To date, this scholarship has supported five students from Pike and Ross counties.

This scholarship is awarded in May and is currently available to seniors attending Huntington-Ross, Western, and Piketon. Interested students should speak to their guidance counselors.
