announcement

Breathing Easy Program

A Home Away is pleased to announce the introduction of Breathing Easy, a program aimed at helping smokers examine the impact of smoking in their life, and providing support in stopping, should they choose to do so. Contrary to popular belief, there is no better time to stop smoking than during the supportive recovery time of drug rehab or addiction treatment. Outcomes improve. We will not force anyone to stop, but, if you want to, we know how, and are very effective at helping many stop smoking. Just another reason to get help now!


Design for Living

At A Home Away we understand that your time with us is just the beginning of helping you recover from the effects of addiction. We are all about helping you discover and experience the kind of life you've always dreamt of. You will be guided to develop an aftercare plan which will be your design for living clean and sober. We will also assist you with putting important supports in place to help you bridge the gap of transitioning from your recovery program.


Program duration of 42 days

The primary addiction recovery program is now 42 days. This is in support of our dedication to providing the best possible program to give you the best chance of sustained recovery from the effects of alcoholism or other addiction. See our Programs for more information.
