RCA Outpatient at St. Charles offers compassionate, evidence-based care for substance use and co-occurring mental health disorders in a supportive, community-centered setting. They provide day treatment and intensive outpatient programs, in-person or virtual, helping clients stay engaged in recovery while balancing real-life responsibilities. Their Changing Directions program gives young adults ages 18–25 the opportunity to connect with peers and build lasting skills for sobriety and independence. Navigate Recovery with 6 Guiding Principles RCA applies six core tenets they’ve determined essential for every client to achieve sustained recovery. These include medications to reduce cravings and prevent relapse, daily 12-step meetings for peer support, and dialectical behavior therapy (DBT) skills training to manage emotions and cope with challenges. Clients also benefit from family involvement, strong alumni connections after discharge, and care that’s guided by real-time progress tracking to adapt and improve treatment along the way. Stay Supported with a Thriving Alumni Network RCA’s alumni association helps clients stay supported and inspired long after treatment ends. They offer ongoing recovery meetings and sober events like movies, sports, and picnics to bring alumni together for fun, fellowship, and connection. Many events allow alumni to invite family and friends, so their support system can play an active role in recovery.
