Evening appointments may be scheduled at certain locations and <strong>24-hour emergency crisis and stabilization</strong> services also are available.</p> <p><strong>TREATMENT & ASSESSMENT</strong></p> <p>Without indicating which of its 50-plus programs are available at its locations, Family & Children’s Services’ <strong>programming is vast</strong>.

Some clients may need assistance managing a common issue such as divorce, while others may be struggling with communication breakdown, anger, and stress management.</p> <p>The<strong>Substance Abuse & Addiction Services</strong> division offers outpatient treatment through integrated and individualized approaches. <strong>Medication-assisted treatment (MAT) is used in combination with behavioral counseling</strong> through a holistically-based focus on client care, which may include <strong>education and relapse prevention</strong>.

On secondary review sites, Family & Children’s Services received <strong>positive coverage</strong> to date: 4.8 out of five stars based on 13 reviews on Facebook, which the organization can manage, and 3.6 out of five stars based on 42 reviews on Google. <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> </p> <p>Of note, these ratings applied to the facility as a whole rather than specifically to addiction treatment. Many reviewers <strong>praised the therapists</strong> and appreciated the help and care they received. Negative comments concerned <strong>long wait times</strong>, especially for walk-in appointments, and rude front-desk staff. In a representative five-star review, Bryan on Google wrote: “This is an amazing organization of individuals providing life services, mental health care, and many others to people who have little or no income” and added: “I would give this organization 10 stars!”</p> <p><strong>WHAT FRIENDS & FAMILY SAY</strong></p> <p>The one anonymous loved one polled by Rehabs.com at the time of this writing submitted mixed feedback. Although the reviewer awarded perfect five stars for affordability and four stars for treatment effectiveness, they gave two stars for counseling options and only one star for likelihood to recommend and staff experience and training. "Counsellors can’t relate to the users,” they wrote, adding: “Counsellors need more one on one time with addicts...”</p> <p><strong>FINANCING</strong></p> <p>According to its website, Family & Children’s Services provides care “regardless of income, for the uninsured and underinsured."</p> <p><strong>CONCLUSION</strong></p> <p>A response to the loss of $775,000 in grants from the Oklahoma Department of Mental Health and Substance Abuse Services due to state revenue failures in 2017, Family and Children’s Services officially <a href="https://www.tulsaworld.com/business/tulsabusiness/family-children-s-services-opens-retail-store/article_0887cea2-0911-5086-b822-e9fd7edd2d11.html" target="_blank">opened a thrift shop</a> in Tulsa.
