About Northern Nevada Teen Challenge

Teen Challenge (TC) operates one of the largest and most successful networks of residential rehab and ministry centers in the country. In the far north region of Sparks, Nevada, you’ll find Northern Nevada Teen Challenge.

Here, they provide a welcoming, encouraging and safe environment where young men can be set free from life controlling addictions. What I like about this program is that, as a nonprofit organization, they accept donations and may be able to help with financial assistance to cover the center’s tuition.

Providing Discipline, Structure and Care

At the center, they offer a non-medical program built on abstinence and discipline. Each resident is paired up with a mentor and counselor who works with them to navigate through emotional and behavioral difficulties. This support helps the boys through moments of severe emotional difficulty that may pop up on their personal journeys.

Within the program, they’ll also get group counseling sessions, complete chores (such as food preparation and cleaning their rooms) in groups, take classes and do exercise activities together. With this structured approach, the program aims to develop in each resident a sense of discipline, accomplishment and overarching purpose.

Keeping Teens Active During Recovery

At the Boys’ Center, they understand that remaining active and engaged is vital to a young man’s growth. For this reason, they weave many different kinds of activities into the core program, including volunteer work, hikes and visiting parks. I noticed the center itself also has a weight room and is situated near the Spanish Springs Skate Park and Library.

Day School

Addiction treatment programs provide an opportunity to get your life back on track with access to school classes or college courses. Whether you want to finish your GED or go back to school to learn a new trade, facilities often enlist tutors and teachers who are certified or licensed by the state to oversee self-study or distance-learning education.

Adventure Therapy

Hiking is a great way to relieve stress, get perspective, navigate challenges, connect with nature, and improve your health - all essential components of sustaining long-term recovery. Studies also show that the body releases endorphins during physical activities like hiking. These endorphins improve mood and act as a natural pain reliever.

Private Rehab

Private drug rehab provides a comfortable, secure environment that allows you to focus on doing the work to get your life back on track. Benefits include a higher staff-to-client ratio, increased one-on-one time with therapists and healthcare providers, private rooms for clients, and customized forms of therapy.

Residential Setting

Residential drug rehab provides the comforts of home with the therapeutic support needed to successfully recover. Benefits of an inpatient program include increased safety, a higher success rate, and the time and distance given to focus on recovery. 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.

Addiction Treatment Programs

Alcoholism

Most programs that offer alcohol rehab in Nevada focus on three aspects of treatment. Participants receive professional therapy, learn new life skills, and develop a network of support that includes a rich community life. This combination provides a solid foundation for recovery and for relapse prevention.

Men's Rehab

A men’s rehab in Nevada provides gender-specific treatments, including peer support. These targeted efforts increase the long-term success of treatment.

Opioid Treatment

Opioid rehab in Nevada typically includes a variety of therapeutic methods. Participation in therapy allows individuals to work with addiction specialists to address the challenges that contribute to addiction. Group therapy sessions provide mutual support and encouragement. Combined, these various methods provide the tools needed to maintain long-term recovery.

Teen & Adolescent Program

A young adult program in Nevada helps participants overcome the challenges of this stage of life and re-enter life stronger, sober, and ready to make healthy choices. This treatment is ideal for teens, college students, and young adults starting careers and families.

Levels of Care

Inpatient Rehab

For around the clock care from a drug rehab in Nevada, choose an inpatient rehab program. At this level of treatment, you’ll live at the rehab facility and receive various forms of therapy, medication management, relapse prevention education, and nutritional counseling.

Aftercare & Alumni Program

Staying away from drugs and alcohol after treatment will be a challenge. That’s why aftercare rehab in Nevada is available. This ongoing support helps you navigate challenges and maintain a sober lifestyle. Counseling and 12-step groups are a common part of aftercare, which may last a few weeks or a year or more.

Dual Diagnosis & Mental Health

When you choose Nevada dual diagnosis treatment, you’ll receive care from experts who specialize in each of your co-occurring disorders. This multidisciplinary approach effectively treats both your mental health and substance abuse disorders.

Sober Living

Sober living in Nevada involves accountability and support. You’ll reside with housemates who are in recovery, and communally pay for rent and complete household duties. Everyone must adhere to house guidelines, which typically include attendance at 12-step meetings, curfew, and abstinence from all drugs and alcohol.
