Serenity Lodge operates its program based on the Therapeutic Community (T/C) model. Which is a residential treatment facility in which the community itself, through self-help & mutual support, is the principal means for promoting personal change!
In a therapeutic community there is a great focus on social, psychological & behavioral dimensions of substance use, with great use of the community to heal individuals emotionally & support the development of behaviors, attitudes & values of healthy living!
