Stonehenge Therapeutic Community provides a range of residential and community-based treatment services to individuals struggling with addiction and concurrent mental health issues. We recognize the role that trauma, marginalization, and oppression play in impacting the wellbeing of those we serve. Grounded in the Therapeutic Community model of treatment, the agency is committed to taking the journey together and supporting those with whom we work to grow, thrive, and contribute to society.

Stonehenge's Residential program is a Therapeutic Community ("TC"), which is a group-based, highly structured, and powerful treatment approach to substance use recovery. At our Residential center, we work with adult individuals with a history of chronic or acute substance abuse concerns, with or without co-occurring mental health diagnosis. Many of the individuals we work with also have current or previous involvement with the correctional system.

"We believe that every individual has the capacity to grow and contribute to society"
