About Atishwin Institute Inc

In the heart of Wichita, Kansas, Atishwin Institute offers hope for individuals battling alcohol and drug addiction. The name “Atishwin” derives from the Chumash Indian language and translates to “dream helper,” reflecting the facility’s mission to help clients reclaim their lives from the grips of substance abuse.

Building Community Through Routine

Atishwin sober living home provides a communal living setting for adults who are seeking long term sobriety. The house offers spacious private and shared rooms, all furnished for convenience and comfort. Amenities include a commercial kitchen, on site washer and dryer, house television and internet access. It’s conveniently located close to downtown and public transportation.

Mandatory Peer Support Meetings

Residents must participate in weekly house meetings and peer support meetings and commit to attending at least two outside 12 step meetings. Like most sober living facilities, chores are mandatory and everyone is expected to keep their spaces neat and tidy.

Utilities are included in the weekly rent and rates vary by room type. I imagine this communal living environment helps individuals build accountability, consistency, and lasting friendships, making the transition to independence smoother and more successful.

Strong Client Experiences

From reading past client feedback, I sense most have had a positive experience at Atishwin. One calls the facility “the most amazing place to get sober,” while another expresses gratitude for the “love, kindness, nurturing and compassion” the staff provided. Visit the Atishwin website to apply for sober living and view a detailed description of the house rules.

Residential Setting

Residential drug rehab provides the comforts of home with the therapeutic support needed to successfully recover.

Residential drug rehabs are often the preferred method of treatment, as they can be tailored to meet specific needs, offer focused therapeutic care, and provide the necessary tools to sustain recovery.

Rec Room & Activities

Recreational therapy uniquely combines therapeutic interventions with an activity, like horse-riding, hiking, wilderness therapy, basketball, tennis, or a full workout. Benefits of recreational therapy include providing a healthy way to work through the emotions of recovery, learning to build and maintain relationships, improving communication skills, and building self-esteem.

In order to maintain a sense of autonomy, many private rehab facilities offer clients the ability to choose their own private rooms. The privacy and personal space ensure that the recovery process is as comfortable as possible.
