I learned more at RCI than I did at Harvard, no bull... From the bus drivers to the clinicians, the staff (many of whom are in long-term recovery themselves) are knowledgeable, personable, and dedicated to supporting every client's recovery however they can. I joined the PHP program at RCI after detox and a month at Spring Hill (another excellent residential facility run by the same company) and stayed at RCI for 50 days before moving to a sober house. That said, many clients come directly to RCI from detox and have similarly positive experiences. PHP patients reside at a renovated (and cozy) Cape Cod hotel and attend groups during the treatment day at a separate (and clean) facility. Back at the "Lodge" there are AA and NA meetings every night and occasionally outside speakers sharing their experiences in recovery. Clients who want to complete the 12 Steps, or some portion of them, while at RCI will be mentored through that process in a simple, supportive, and straightforward process, which was one of the highlights of my experience (having never completed Step 4 previously). However, for those who do not choose 12-Step recovery, or are seeking supplements to 12-Step programs, there are optional (and by no means mandatory) outside church services, bible studies, yoga and meditation groups, Refuge (Buddhist-based) Recovery programming, equine therapy (horseback riding), and four-times weekly trips to a recovery-based fitness center. Between these opportunities, the exceptional staff, and engaged clients from around the country who come to RCI, Recovering Champions is a phenomenal resource for anyone in early recovery (up to and including IOP and sober living after higher levels of care) who is seeking the best help available for physical, mental, and emotional recovery from alcohol and drug addiction.
