About Fresno First CalWORKs
Fresno First CalWORKs is located in Fresno, California. They provide substance use treatment to women who are ready to start recovery. You’ll be supported through supportive housing. You’ll also have access to evidence based treatments via their counseling and support services. To receive care here, you'll need to be referred through the Fresno County Department of Social Services or the Reach team at CalWORKs.
When you start your treatment here, you'll work with a care team who’re committed to helping find the right support for your unique needs. Through case management and care coordination, you can be certain you're getting the right therapies for your specific struggles.
The substance use program will connect you to counseling services with experienced addiction counselors. You'll learn critical skills that can help you lead a sober lifestyle. For example, you'll learn how to manage different triggers and stressful emotions that have contributed to your substance use disorder.
What stands out to me with this location is that they provide flexible care, even if you have children. Their supportive housing programs make it easy for you to receive care because your children can live with you while you’re in rehab.
Some of the other support you'll have access to here include job training. Through this, you can learn essential skills that will allow you to secure gainful employment. You’ll also have peer counseling as well. This will allow you to build a network of support that you can lean on during the difficult parts of your recovery.
