Attend an Orientation
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.
