Treatment
Readiness
WRA provides pre-treatment services to assess, support
and assist a client in entering treatment. The Orientation Group
provides information and orientation about WRA programs, services and
general philosophy. A brief individual assessment is completed for each
client at this time.
After attending
one Orientation Group, the client is encouraged to attend the
Treatment Readiness Group. The purpose is to provide support
and education to the client (who may be using her drug of choice) while
she awaits a bed in the residential program. Treatment Readiness
Group participation helps with extended assessment, engagement,
support and motivation for the client regarding treatment. This component
offers a harm reduction treatment model.
