<p><strong>ABOUT SAMARITAN INNS</strong></p> <p>In what began in 1985 as a nine-bed transitional home for the homeless and addicted in Washington, D.C, Samaritan Inns is now an established group of <strong>recovery homes and programs for homeless men and women</strong>. According to its website, Samaritan Inns <strong>guides more than 500 men and women each year</strong> towards reaching substance-free, fully-employed, and independent lives.</p> <p><strong>TREATMENT & ASSESSMENT</strong></p> <p>The two-phase recovery program at Samaritan Inns begins with <strong>28 highly structured days of residential treatment</strong>. Program participants, men and women typically between the ages of 18 to 65, receive <strong>education</strong> on the impact of addiction, learn the principles of the <strong>12 steps of Alcoholics Anonymous</strong>, and attend <strong>counseling sessions</strong> held in both group and private settings. They’ll also follow a regimen of nutrition, exercise, and sleep to improve their physical health.</p> <p>Following their 28-day residency, participants have opportunity to put into practice all that they’ve just learnt in phase two, <strong>four to six months of transitional living</strong>. The DC-certified program does carry some expectations, requiring men and women to <strong>seek out employment</strong> within 30 days of entry, develop their network of recovery resources, <strong>begin building a savings account</strong>, and attend <strong>weekly meetings with addictions counselors</strong>. Also available are opportunities for health care enrollment, GED prep, and job training.</p> <p><strong>STAFF CREDENTIALS</strong></p> <p>Counseling sessions are facilitated by addictions counselors and therapists.</p> <p><strong>ACCOMMODATIONS & AMENITIES</strong></p> <p>There is currently no information provided by the organization regarding its living arrangements and related offerings.</p> <p>An anonymous Rehabs.com survey respondent, however, gave Samaritan Inns five stars for its meals and cleanliness and four stars for its accommodations.</p> <p><strong>WHAT ALUMNI SAY</strong></p> <p>In the sole survey response for Rehabs.com to date, an anonymous alum gave five stars for the effectiveness of treatment and the holistic options available.
