Hope Of East Tennessee Inc

Recognizing the need for outpatient addictions treatment, hope established an outpatient program in 1999. This program is available to those who need intensive treatment coupled with a long term residential stay and for those who are capable of getting the treatment needed while remaining at home and on the job. In addition to assessments, hope offers an intensive outpatient program, aftercare, and individual counseling. Our intensive outpatient program offers daily groups that meet for three hours four times weekly over 8 weeks. Each session includes education about addictions, learning and practicing coping skills needed for lasting sobriety, group therapy, and individual counseling. Strong emphasis is placed on the use of 12 step programs for support and principles for change. Hope's intensive outpatient program is a routine part of the program for residents of the opportunity house who require/need intensive outpatient treatment. Intensive outpatient treatment is available to indigent clients as well as those having tenncare coverage.
