<p><strong>ABOUT BREAKTHROUGH RECOVERY OUTREACH</strong></p> <p>Located in Atlanta, Ga., Breakthrough Recovery Outreach (BRO) is a rehab offering a broad range of treatment options to people living in the Atlanta metro area who are suffering from substance misuse and <a href="http://www.recovery.org/topics/dual-diagnosis-recovery/" target="_blank">co-occurring mental health disorders</a>. BRO has several <strong>residential programs</strong> as well as many outpatient options, including <strong>intensive outpatient programs (IOP)</strong>. The center also offers <strong>teen-specific treatment</strong> and a <strong>sober living</strong> program.</p> <p><strong>TREATMENT & ASSESSMENT</strong></p> <p>According to BRO’s website, the center integrates <strong>holistic</strong> treatment and <strong>evidence-based</strong> medical and psychological modalities with the <strong><a href="https://www.recovery.org/pro/articles/how-a-non-religious-journalist-makes-a-case-for-aa-in-2017/" target="_blank">12 Steps</a></strong>. After an initial assessment, clients are assigned to specific treatment programs based on their needs. </p> <p>A short-term <strong>28-day residential</strong> program is offered for sober individuals who have had a brief relapse. A long-term <strong>90-day residential</strong> program is available for clients with more complex conditions. In Georgia, <a href="https://wwwdasis.samhsa.gov/webt/state_data/GA16.pdf" target="_blank">17.2 percent</a> of non-hospital treatment facilities have residential programs lasting more than 30 days.</p> <p><strong>The long-term program is a multi-phase process</strong>. The Red Phase (days 1-45) is an adjustment period for acclimating to the recovery process and sober living. In the Yellow Phase (days 45-90), clients focus on making major improvements in their recovery. The Green Phase lasts the next 90 days (91-180) and covers the period where new <strong>sober living skills are integrated into everyday life</strong>. An optional fourth phase involves <a href="https://www.recovery.org/topics/extended-recovery-programs/" target="_blank">aftercare</a> and sobriety maintenance.</p> <p>BRO's <strong>IOP</strong> program is intended for transitioning clients out of residential programs and back into the community. The program meets three days a week for three hours. Treatment includes <strong>group, individual, and <a href="https://www.recovery.org/pro/articles/the-pain-of-addiction-in-the-family-how-counseling-can-help/" target="_blank">family therapy</a></strong>.</p> <p><strong>STAFF CREDENTIALS</strong></p> <p>According to BRO’s website, the treatment team includes counselors, a psychiatrist, a nurse, a nutritionist, a career coach, a career therapist, a music therapist, family therapist, and a massage therapist.
