Report
Our son entered this program after almost 6 years of failed treatment for mental illness and substance abuse. He had been in and out of hospitals and programs with no success of stabilization. When our don entered this program, our family had almost lost hope for him. We could tell this group was different from our first call for information. Jake was quick to respond and was able to put everything in to motion quickly. These people were able to provide the care and treatment that nobody else was able to do. These people love their jobs and love their participants in the program. They are not in

Report
My daughter had been in and out of jail, hospitals and treatment centers for 5 yrs before she finally landed at Crownview. She was kicked out of every single place due to her behavior. Everyone fave up on her. By then we ready to give and accept the fact that she would die. By the grace of god she landed at Crownview and has been there over a year with a year sober. Crownview saw past her behaviors, they didnt give up on her, they helped her through it and showed her love and compassion. Theyve not only taught her but literally saved her life. The staff at Crownview has gone above and beyond

I was in and out of hospitals and different residential facilities since my freshman year of high school. I had sever trauma and I thought the only way to stop hurting was to die. Many residential facilities would say they couldnt help me and would send me back to my abusive environment and the cycle of impatient hospitalizations at least once a month. By the time I got to Crownview Co-Occurring Institute I was beyond broken and hopeless. I thought here we go ill do this stay here and didnt have much hope for any help here either. When I entered their facility I was on almost 20 meds a day

I went to Crownview Co-occurring Institute's In patient program for about 7 months, and continued with their intensive outpatient program for several more months. I have a total of about 1.5 years client consistent experience with the program and their staff. From my experience, and I have ALOT not only including this place, the program is excellent to help rebuild the foundation of your life to set you up for healthy relationships with yourself, others, and work-life balance. They show you tools to navigate the highs and lows of life. I think it's important to mention ultimately you get out what
