Make it practical

Here is how to begin.

Brief Intervention may help an adult focus on one concern, think about motivation, or find a realistic next step. Its purpose should be clear before taking part. Review broader context in the Recovery Resource Center, then use Admissions and Contact to learn which goal the intervention addresses. Call Choice to learn what care is available and whether it may fit your needs. Admission and start dates depend on each person's needs.

A clear goal should be specific enough to discuss. Examples include looking at readiness for change, understanding how substance use affects a stated priority, or deciding whether to think about further assessment. A direct talk can help Choice learn your needs and discuss whether outpatient care may fit. Learn how the goal is chosen, how progress is discussed, and what happens after the focused contact.
