This is a 12 step based program, they need to update their programming to treat the underlying cause of the addictions they are trying to treat rather than concentrating on the addiction itself. That is why most of their patients end up relapsing and returning to drug use. Also the staff is very quick to judge and as it is a religious institution I think it is horrible that the Anoka County Government continues to force non-Christian citizens to go to this facility, rather than a cbt and scientifically based program that has been proven to be far more effective. We are not powerless to our addictions, as a matter of fact, we are the only thing that can control our addictions. But what do I know, I'm just a doctor.
