A Chance to Change Foundation

A Chance to Change Foundation delivers outpatient substance abuse treatment and mental health counseling at its Oklahoma City clinic, serving individuals who are ready to work on recovery while remaining connected to their daily lives, families, and communities. The outpatient program model means clients are not removed from their support networks — they build recovery skills in a structured setting and then apply them in real time.

The center's Addiction Education Series gives clients and family members a foundation for understanding chemical dependency, behavioral addictions, and co-occurring disorders. Group therapy creates peer accountability and community connection that extend well beyond individual sessions — a key ingredient for lasting sobriety. For those balancing jobs or caregiving responsibilities, evening availability through 8:00 PM on weekdays makes consistent attendance far more realistic than typical daytime-only schedules.

Recovery doesn't end when active treatment does, and A Chance to Change Foundation has built two distinct aftercare programs — A Chance to Recover and A Chance to Succeed — to keep clients supported as they move further into independent recovery. These programs reflect an understanding that the period after formal treatment is often when people are most vulnerable to relapse, and that community connection during that stretch matters enormously.

For families navigating a loved one's recovery, these continuing care pathways offer structure and reassurance that the relationship with the center doesn't simply conclude at discharge. The center's pricing model — which includes free and reduced-fee services alongside financial assistance and sliding scale options — means that aftercare support remains accessible even for those with limited resources.

The center's reach across populations is one of its most distinctive qualities in the Oklahoma City recovery landscape. A Chance to Change works with adolescents, young adults ages 18–25, seniors, veterans, pregnant women, men, women, individuals with HIV/AIDS, those who are deaf or hard of hearing, and court-ordered clients. This breadth means that families dealing with addiction across multiple generations, or individuals with intersecting needs, can often find appropriate care without being referred elsewhere.

Veterans and active-duty families benefit from TRICARE acceptance, while Medicaid and Medicare coverage opens doors for older adults and lower-income clients. Court-ordered clients receive the same outpatient programming as self-referred individuals, and the Employee Assistance Program provides an entry point for people whose employers are supporting their path toward recovery. Whatever the starting point, A Chance to Change is built to meet clients where they are in the recovery continuum.

Cognitive Behavioral Therapy forms the clinical backbone of the center's substance use and mental health programming. CBT equips clients with concrete strategies for recognizing the connections between thoughts, emotions, and behaviors — skills that directly support sustained recovery from substance use, behavioral addictions, and co-occurring conditions like trauma, PTSD, codependency, and dual diagnosis disorders.

Addressing mental health alongside addiction is not an add-on at A Chance to Change — it is built into the center's scope of practice. Clients dealing with chemical dependency alongside depression, anxiety, trauma, or codependency are treated within the same outpatient framework, reducing the gap between mental health care and addiction treatment that so often complicates recovery. The client portal supports continuity between sessions, helping individuals stay engaged with their recovery goals on their own schedule.
