<p><strong>ABOUT LAFAYETTE HOUSE</strong></p> <p>Located in the southwestern Missouri city of Joplin, Lafayette House provides <strong>substance abuse treatment, domestic violence intervention, and sexual assault crisis and aftercare services</strong> for women, children, and families. The facility offers both tiered residential and outpatient-based programs, and <strong>children are permitted</strong> to stay with their mothers during residential treatment. Priority admission is given to pregnant women.</p> <p><strong>TREATMENT & ASSESSMENT</strong></p> <p>Upon intake, clients may undergo an initial assessment to determine individual client needs and appropriate level of treatment. Utilizing Missouri’s <a href="http://dmh.mo.gov/ada/progs/treatment.html" target="_blank">comprehensive substance abuse treatment and recovery</a> (CSTAR) model, Lafayette House offers <strong>three levels of treatment for drug and alcohol addiction</strong>. The center’s programming consists of <strong>individual, group, and if applicable, family counseling sessions</strong> to identify and treat any factors that may contribute to addictive behavior. Programming also includes <strong>licensed child care</strong>, education classes, community support, and transportation.</p> <p>The <strong>three treatment levels vary in length, intensity, and structure</strong>. Typically lasting 30 days, Level One of treatment is the most structured and intensive programming, offered through a residential or an outpatient-based program. Level Two consists of intermediate outpatient-based services and requires a 45-day commitment, while Level Three is the least-intensive level of outpatient services and typically lasts 90 days. Clinicians may <strong>encourage clients to utilize the tiered treatment approach as a “step-down” continuum</strong> of care. </p> <p>Lafayette House also offers a specialized program for traffic offenders dealing with drug- or alcohol-related traffic offenses. In addition to substance abuse-related treatment, Lafayette House also serves as a shelter for victims of domestic violence.
