The Recovery Resource Center is dedicated to simplifying the substance use treatment process by providing a central point of information, and to increase access to treatment through recovery support, assessment services, and education on prevention and harm reduction.
We will provide assessment, peer support, and regular follow-ups. After transition to treatment, we continue to provide support, encouragement, and intervention if substance use occurs again.
The Recovery Resource Center provides outreach and education services, including education to agencies on working with individuals with substance use disorders, opioid overdose prevention, and on-call recovery support services in the local emergency departments, psychiatric units, and other medical facilities. We promote harm reduction and prevention through Naloxone training and distribution.
Frequently asked questions
Who will you share my information with, and what if someone calls and wants a copy of my assessment or any other information I’ve shared?
Information can only be shared with your permission. The Recovery Resource Center staff will discuss the confidentiality of your conversation and answer any questions. If you want to share the information, a release form will be completed to provide details of what information is shared and with whom.
Will I be drug tested?
No, you will not be drug tested at the RRC.
Will I be required to go into treatment if I come in and get an assessment?
Visiting the Recovery Resource Center does not obligate you to go to treatment or even to get an assessment. There are no obligations at all. We just want to answer your questions, offer support, and ensure you do not feel alone in the process.
What if I disagree with the treatment recommendation but still want help?
The counselor will discuss the treatment recommendation and your concerns. We will listen and help develop the best plan of action and provide you with all available options.
