I want to note that staff use a trauma informed, person centered approach to stabilize symptoms and connect each individual to detox, outpatient or residential providers for continued recovery.

Beyond on site services, Carastar offers mobile crisis response reaching Montgomery, Autauga, Elmore, Lowndes and surrounding counties.
