Mariners Inn

Mariners Inn offers a full continuum of substance abuse treatment for men at its Detroit campus, including residential treatment, a standard outpatient program, and an Intensive Outpatient Program (IOP). This stepped structure allows men to begin with the level of support their recovery requires and transition through lower-intensity programming as they build stability — rather than facing an abrupt end to care after a residential stay.

The center operates around the clock, seven days a week, and accepts Medicaid, Medicare, private insurance, state insurance, self-pay, and sliding scale arrangements, as well as financial assistance for those who qualify. That range of payment options reflects the center's long-standing commitment to removing financial barriers for men seeking addiction treatment in Wayne County.

Mariners Inn treats co-occurring disorders and dual diagnosis as a core part of its residential and outpatient programs, not an add-on. The center also specializes in trauma and PTSD — conditions that frequently intersect with substance use and that require targeted clinical attention for recovery to take hold. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) provides the clinical framework for this work, helping men examine and reshape the thought patterns that drive addictive behavior.

This dual focus on mental health and substance abuse treatment positions Mariners Inn as a recovery center equipped to work with men whose needs go beyond addiction alone — including veterans managing service-related trauma and young adults dealing with early-life adversity.

Recovery doesn't end when residential treatment does, and Mariners Inn structures its aftercare accordingly. Peer mentoring and alumni programs connect men who have completed treatment with others still working through the early stages of recovery — a model that reinforces accountability and belonging within a broader recovery community.

For men in Detroit and across Wayne County who are building a life after addiction, these ongoing connections matter. The alumni network represents one of the more tangible ways Mariners Inn extends its mission past the residential program and into the sustained, community-grounded recovery that defines long-term sobriety.

Mariners Inn is a men's-only addiction treatment center, with specialized experience serving veterans, young adults ages 18 to 25, men living with HIV/AIDS, and individuals who are deaf or hard of hearing. The facility also provides shelter, making it one of the few recovery centers in Southeast Michigan equipped to serve men experiencing homelessness alongside substance use disorders.

This combination of clinical programming and housing support reflects the center's founding mission — and its understanding that stable housing and sustainable recovery are deeply connected for many of the men it serves in Detroit and Wayne County.
