Clients attend group and individual sessions from three times to once a week, depending on their progress. Like other NYTC programs, treatment focuses on behavior, attitudes and lifestyle, thus addressing the underlying issues which have led to substance abuse and which prevent a person from living a successful life. The group sessions emphasize the importance of one’s peers in working through these issues. On average, a client will attend for twelve months. Clients are also eligible for referral to the more-intensive residential Serendipity programs if appropriate.
