When it comes to alcohol rehabilitation or drug addiction rehabilitation, there are many kinds of rehabilitation and recovery programs now available to help people get their lives back on track. Yet, while all may have the best of intentions, there are not many with significant success rates like the Narconon Fresh Start Program.

Typically, reports show that other types of rehabilitation programs only help between 10 and 25 percent of those that go through the program to successfully give up drugs and alcohol without any slips back into addiction. That is a somewhat low rate, considering the investment of time and money that people make into these programs in hopes of turning their life around.  Then, there is also the measurements of completion rates and relapse rates, which also have indicated lower success rates than what might be otherwise be expected for the length and intensity of some of these programs.

Standing out in the crowd of drug and alcohol dependency programs is the Narconon Fresh Start Program with its 76% success rate. Behind this significantly higher success rate are a number of keys to the program’s success that are part of every program at Sunshine Summit Lodge.

These keys to success include:

• Not-for-Profit structure;
• Time variable program frameworks;
• Non-group, individualized approach to therapy;
• Secluded, distraction-free environments;
• Detoxification strategy;
• Life skills rehabilitation technology; and
• Program guarantees.

In future blog posts, we’ll discuss these keys to success in greater detail.  These keys were established from the start of Narconon in 1966 and have been at the core of all drug and alcohol rehabilitation centers that use the Narconon Fresh Start Program as the focal point of their recovery programs. Not only are these keys to success proven to work, but they are also aligned with the driving mission of Narconon, which continues to be to help those with alcohol and drug addictions as well as their loved ones to stop living with these addictions and enjoy a life free of drug and alcohol forever.
