About Dixon Springs Impact Incarceration Program

Dixon Springs Impact Incarceration Program is a correctional boot camp with residential substance use disorder treatment in Golconda, Illinois. The facility is operated by WestCare Illinois in partnership with the Illinois Department of Corrections.

Located in the scenic Shawnee National Forest, this 120-day pre-sentencing program serves men and women in separate sections, offering minimum security adult offenders a structured pathway to reduced sentencing and lasting recovery.

I like that the program combines military-style behavioral modification with evidence-based addiction treatment to build accountability, self-esteem, and reentry readiness.

Participants enter a residential treatment program within a highly structured boot camp environment that includes physical training and formal daily schedules. The 120-day program integrates monthly individual counseling, cognitive behavioral therapy groups and specialty treatment sessions to address the root causes of addiction and criminal behavior.

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.

Meditation Room

Yoga and meditation are great activities to support your recovery process during alcohol or drug rehab. These therapies have been around for centuries, and they are an effective way to improve well-being. Combining addiction treatment, yoga, and meditation can reduce cravings, improve sleep, relieve anxiety and depression, provide stress relief, promote relaxation, support emotional healing, and improve energy levels.

Payment Options

Financial Aid

If you need help to pay for alcohol and drug rehab in Illinois, there are a number of financial aid programs available. In order to qualify for aid, you must fill out an application and check on the status of your application often. Competition can be stiff for these forms of financial assistance.

Medicaid Accepted

Medicaid will cover at least some, if not all, of the associated costs for detox and alcohol or drug rehab in Illinois. Since Medicaid is not accepted by every treatment provider, be sure to speak with your insurance provider to confirm your benefits and the coverage details before entering a treatment program.

Medicare Accepted

If you qualify for Medicare coverage, you can use it to offset the costs of alcohol and drug rehab in Illinois. It pays for inpatient and outpatient treatment, so long as it's deemed medically necessary, you receive care from a center that accepts Medicare, and a medical provider sets up your plan of care.

TRICARE

Administered by the Department of Defense, TRICARE offers comprehensive military health insurance plans for active and retired military members and their families. Similar to PPO programs offered by private insurance companies, TRICARE covers multiple levels of care for addiction treatment, including detox, inpatient rehab, and outpatient services.

Pay-Per-Session

Rather than pay for an entire treatment program at once, you can pay for substance abuse counseling per session. Rates for therapy sessions vary by treatment provider and generally range from $130-$200. Typical forms of payment accepted include insurance, credit, debit, and cash.

Private Insurance

For those who have priviate insurance coverage, the cost of alcohol and drug rehab in Illinois can be greatly reduced or completely eliminated. But keep in mind, coverage rates vary by specific plan, so be sure to confirm your plan details with your provider.

Self-Pay Options

Self-pay options, also known as private pay, are common when paying for drug rehab in Illinois. As the name suggests, you are paying for treatment out-of-pocket. Examples of private pay include paying in cash, writing a check, taking out a personal or medical loan, credit card payments, and more.

Sliding Scale Payment

Many alcohol and drug rehabs in Illinois offer sliding scale payment plans for clients who cannot otherwise afford to pay for treatment. You'll need to fill out an application and, upon acceptance, the rehab will work with you to develop a payment plan based on your income.
