Detroit Recovery Project Inc

Detroit Recovery Project Inc offers structured outpatient programming for individuals pursuing sustained recovery from addiction in the Detroit metropolitan area. As a CARF-accredited outpatient clinic in Highland Park, the center is positioned to serve Wayne County residents who need consistent, community-based substance abuse treatment — whether they are stepping down from residential treatment or beginning their recovery journey in an outpatient setting.

The outpatient program model allows clients to engage in active addiction treatment while remaining connected to their jobs, families, and neighborhoods. This approach reflects a philosophy that long-term recovery is built within everyday life, not isolated from it. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) provides the clinical foundation, helping participants recognize and reshape the thought patterns that drive substance use and mental health challenges.

What distinguishes Detroit Recovery Project within the regional recovery community is its commitment to life after outpatient treatment. The center operates the Certified Peer Recovery Mentor (CPRM) Academy, a formal training pathway that prepares individuals in recovery to guide others through the same process. This peer-driven model creates a cycle of community support that extends well beyond a single client's treatment episode.

Additional aftercare resources include the Community Health Workers Training Program and Adult Mental Health First Aid (MHFA) training. Together, these offerings create a structured route for alumni to develop professional skills, deepen their connection to the recovery community, and contribute meaningfully to Detroit's broader public health landscape. For families and individuals who want a recovery center invested in what comes after treatment, these programs are a defining feature of this facility.

Detroit Recovery Project serves a broad range of individuals seeking outpatient addiction treatment, with specific program capacity for populations that are often underserved. The center accepts court-ordered clients, providing a structured and credentialed recovery environment that meets legal referral requirements while still prioritizing genuine, lasting recovery outcomes. Services are also designed to be accessible for individuals who are Deaf or Hard of Hearing — a population that faces significant gaps in accessing quality substance abuse treatment.

Co-occurring mental illness is treated alongside addiction, acknowledging the clinical reality that many people navigating recovery are managing both challenges simultaneously. The availability of multiple payment options — including Medicaid, Medicare, state insurance, private insurance, self-pay, sliding scale fees, and financial assistance — means that financial barriers are less likely to stand between a Detroit-area resident and the outpatient care they need.

Detroit Recovery Project Inc accepts a wide range of payment methods designed to make outpatient addiction treatment accessible across income levels. Accepted payment includes Medicaid, Medicare, state insurance, and private insurance, alongside self-pay and cash options. For those without sufficient coverage, sliding scale fees and financial assistance are also available.

This breadth of payment options reflects the center's commitment to reducing barriers for Detroit-area residents seeking substance abuse treatment and recovery support. Prospective clients and families can reach the center directly at (313) 365-3100 or by email at [email protected] to discuss payment and program eligibility.
