Shorewood House Offers Fresh Start in 2018 with No-Cost Residential Addiction Treatment
Program offers up to eight women 30 days of treatment
Milwaukee, Wis. — Jan. 2, 2018 — Shorewood House today launches an unprecedented program through which it will offer eight women 30 days of residential addiction treatment this February through March with no out-of-pocket costs, excluding medications.
This is a first-of-its-kind offering that underscores the importance of women supporting other women as they recover and rebuild their lives. Shorewood House is encouraging women who are looking to obtain whole wellness treatment for their substance use disorder to apply. If a prospective client’s insurance doesn’t cover any piece of the program, she will not be held financially accountable.
“Shorewood House is opening its doors to women who want a fresh start in the New Year. Those going through substance addiction disorders don’t have to do it alone and obtaining the right treatment is a vital part of recovery,” said Christine Ullstrup, Meta House Interim Co-President and CEO. “We understand what a difficult step this can be. At Shorewood House, we offer holistic treatment that enables women to restore, rebuild and renew their lives.”
Those interested must submit an application online by Friday, January 18, 2018. Shorewood House will follow up with all applicants shortly thereafter to discuss the status of their application.
If selected, Shorewood House will contact prospective clients to schedule a brief, pre-intake phone call to reaffirm their commitment to treatment and choose the best intake date available. Once enrolled, the client’s only obligation is to complete the 30-day stay and take steps toward getting well.
This special offering is part of Shorewood House’s ongoing mission to provide individualized drug and alcohol addiction treatment for the whole women in a residential setting. The program provides 50 years of comprehensive treatment expertise in a newly-renovated, 8-bed home located in the Village of Shorewood, Wisconsin. Shorewood, a suburb located just north of Downtown Milwaukee, blends urban amenities with the relaxed atmosphere of a small town.
