THERAPEUTIC COMMUNITIES
Therapeutic communities (TCs) are highly structured programs in which patients stay at a residence, typically for 6 to 12 months. Patients in TCs include those with relatively long histories of drug dependence, involvement in serious criminal activities, and seriously impaired social functioning. The focus of the TC is on the resocialization of the patient to a drug-free, crime-free lifestyle.
Treatment Noes
Therapeutic communities, being long term and focused on re-training a person socially acheive much success for those who complete the program.
