Recovery Works
In order to provide a safe space for people living with HIV/AIDS to receive substance abuse treatment, Odyssey House, in collaboration with NO/AIDS Task Force, is offering intensive outpatient substance abuse treatment for the HIV+ community of the Greater New Orleans area.
This treatment program is client-centered: whether a client is currently using drugs or alcohol and wants to get clean, or has a history of substance use and abuse, Recovery Works can help. Our program strives to provide the best structure, setting, and support to help each client achieve their treatment goals. Options include and are not limited to: one-on-one counseling, group meetings, family groups, counseling for couples, and after care.
Recovery Works uses a treatment program based on a Relapse Prevention model. Clients are expected to attend and participate in group meetings and individual sessions with their clinician in order to progress from one phase of the program to the next. All program services are located at the NO/AIDS Task Force Main Office (2601 Tulane Ave, 5th Floor).
Recovery Works is available in Spanish.
