<p><strong>ABOUT COMMUNITY TREATMENT CENTER, INC.</strong></p> <p>Located in the coastal city of Cocoa, Fla., Community Treatment Center (CTC), Inc. offers a continuum of treatment services for <strong>adults struggling with substance abuse and <a href="http://www.recovery.org/topics/dual-diagnosis-recovery/" target="_blank">co-occurring disorders</strong></a>. Founded in 1969, non-profit CTC aims to keep its programming accessible and affordable. </p> <p>Treatment options include <strong>long-term residential care for adult men</strong>, as well as intensive outpatient (IOP) treatment and <strong>outpatient-based care for both men and women</strong>. Clients also may receive clinical evaluations on-site. The organization operates two additional centers in Brevard County in Titusville and Melbourne. CTC provides an interpreter at no cost for clients who are deaf, hard of hearing, or have limited English language skills. </p> <p><strong>TREATMENT & ASSESSMENT</strong></p> <p>Prior to enrolling in a treatment program, clients must first complete an application and participate in an <strong>admissions interview</strong>. Men who require intense treatment and structure may opt for the organization’s Level III residential substance abuse treatment program. Clients stay for <strong>30, 60, or 90-days</strong>, which can be extended to six months and <strong>up to one year</strong>. </p> <p>In the state of Florida, CTC is among 20.8 percent of substance abuse treatment facilities that offer <a href="https://wwwdasis.samhsa.gov/webt/state_data/FL17.pdf" target="_blank">long-term residential, non-hospital care</a>. The facility also is among 44.2 percent of substance abuse treatment facilities with specially tailored <a href="https://wwwdasis.samhsa.gov/webt/state_data/FL17.pdf" target="_blank">programs for adult men</a>.</p> <p>Treatment at CTC is grounded in <strong>12-step principles</strong>, but also allows for customization and individuality. Clients receive <strong>one-on-one counseling</strong>; they also participate in <strong>group therapy</strong> to learn new life skills, practice communicating with others, and develop new values. Specialized groups focus on <strong>addiction education, parenting skills, relapse prevention</strong>, and HIV education. </p> <p>Alternative therapies, including <strong>art therapy, music therapy, and recreational therapy</strong>, encourage self-expression. Additionally, all clients are expected to attend off-site recovery meetings and find a sponsor.</p> <p><strong>Level II IOP treatment</strong> requires a minimum of <strong>nine hours of programming each week</strong> and can be used as a stand-alone treatment or as <a href="http://www.recovery.org/topics/extended-recovery-programs/" target="_blank">step-down aftercare</a> from the residential program. <strong>Level I OP requirements are less stringent</strong> but include a weekly group session, recovery meeting attendance, and individual consultations. Both the IOP and OP serve clients from the criminal justice system; as such, CTC is among 36.8 percent of substance abuse treatment facilities in the state with programs for <a href="https://wwwdasis.samhsa.gov/webt/state_data/FL17.pdf" target="_blank">criminal justice clients</a>.</p> <p><strong>STAFF CREDENTIALS</strong></p> <p>CTC is licensed by the state of Florida and the Department of Children and Families to offer substance abuse treatment services. According to its website, the facility employs “licensed and certified staff members to assist the clients in recovery” with no further specifics. The one individual polled by Rehabs.com to date gave four out of five stars for the staff's level of experience at the time.</p> <p><strong>ACCOMMODATIONS & AMENITIES</strong></p> <p>The center's men-only Level III program offers a homelike facility located in a residential neighborhood that can house <strong>up to 15 adults at a time</strong>. The sole individual polled by Rehabs.com gave three stars for the facility's cleanliness.</p> <p><strong>WHAT ALUMNI SAY</strong></p> <p>Secondary sites yielded <strong>highly positive coverage</strong> of CTC to date: one perfect five-star rating on CiteHealth; another perfect five stars on Google; and 4.3 out of five stars based on eight reviews on Facebook, which the organization can manage. <small class="footnote"><a target="_blank" href="#footnote-1"><sup>[1]</sup></a></small> <small class="footnote"><a target="_blank" href="#footnote-2"><sup>[2]</sup></a></small> <small class="footnote"><a target="_blank" href="#footnote-3"><sup>[3]</sup></a></small> </p> <p>Reviewers used words such as “wonderful” and “awesome” to describe the program. After the first of these terms, an anonymous former client on CiteHealth added: “I have been sober 2 years now and i got my life and kids back!” Of the total eight reviewers on Facebook, six awarded the facility the top five stars, one of whom, S.G., wrote: “This place will change your life. Only when you are truly ready for change.” </p> <p><strong>WHAT FRIENDS & FAMILY SAY</strong></p> <p>At the time of this writing, the sole loved one polled by Rehabs.com gave a mixed review about CTC. J.A. awarded four stars for connectivity/visitor policy, likelihood to recommend, and staff experience and training, as well as three stars for facility cleanliness and upkeep and family participation. However, they assigned two stars for affordability and counseling options and one star for holistic offerings. “Especially lacking is encouragement of program literature and sponsorship. It seems the residents are left to figure it out for themselves (& most of them don't even want to)," J.A. wrote.</p> <p><strong>FINANCING</strong></p> <p>All of CTC’s programs are self-pay and offer <strong>a sliding-scale fee</strong>. The residential program requires $125 a week to cover room, board, and treatment for the six-month to one-year program options. IOP clients pay $45 for an initial assessment, $15 for each group session three times per week, $30 for individual sessions, $15 for random drug screenings, and $10 for breathalyzer testing. OP clients pay $45 for an initial evaluation, $25 for group sessions once a week, $25 for random drug screening, and $10 for breathalyzer testing<br /> . <br /> <small class="footnote"><a target="_blank" href="#footnote-1"><sup>[1]</sup></a> <a href="http://citehealth.com/rehab-centers/florida/cities/cocoa/community-treatment-center-inc#reviews" target="_blank">http://citehealth.com/rehab-centers/florida/cities/cocoa/community-treatment-center-inc#reviews</a></small></p> <p><small class="footnote"><a target="_blank" href="#footnote-2"><sup>[2]</sup></a> <a href="https://www.google.com/search?q=community+treatment+center+cocoa&oq=Community+Treatment+Center+coc&aqs=chrome.0.0j69i57j0.1279j0j7&sourceid=chrome&ie=UTF-8#lrd=0x88de01df400d1697:0xd69df00859fee473,1,,," target="_blank">GoogleReviews</a></small></p> <p><small class="footnote"><a target="_blank" href="#footnote-3"><sup>[3]</sup></a> <a href="https://www.facebook.com/pg/CTCBrevard/reviews/?ref=page_internal" target="_blank">https://www.facebook.com/pg/CTCBrevard/reviews/?ref=page_internal</a></small></p>
