Welcome to Freedom Recovery Center's Patient Advocacy Program! In addition to our medication-assisted treatment program, we offer a range of advocacy services to support individuals on their journey to recovery.

At Freedom Recovery Center, we understand that the path to recovery is not always straightforward. That's why we provide advocacy services aimed at addressing the various barriers individuals face in their recovery journey. Our goal is to empower our patients and their communities by advocating for their rights and needs.

 

Our advocacy services include:

• Legal Advocacy: Navigating legal systems can be challenging, especially for individuals affected by substance use disorders. Our legal advocacy program educates individuals and legal systems on the importance of medication-assisted treatment therapy. We provide guidance on patients' rights in court settings and work to ensure the best outcomes are attainable.

• Medical Advocacy: We empower patients to make informed decisions about their healthcare by providing advocacy support in medical settings. Our team helps patients overcome obstacles to quality care and offers support and guidance through various medical scenarios.

• Wellness Line: Our wellness line offers listening support for patients feeling overwhelmed or in need of someone to talk to. This resource provides trauma-informed advocacy to help patients navigate the challenges of living with substance use.

• Life skills Coaching: We offer support in life skills coaching to assist patients in improving their overall life circumstances. From resume writing to housing support, we help patients progress beyond managing their disease to living fulfilling lives.

• Community Engagement: We believe in the power of community collaboration and advocate for individuals affected by substance use in broader settings. We also give back to our communities through donations, grants, and community events.

• Family/Support Team Collaboration: Recovery is often strengthened by the support of loved ones. We engage patients' support teams to provide education, listening support, and wellness training, creating positive allies for those in recovery.
