New Horizons

New Horizons – Robert Young Center provides outpatient addiction treatment and an Intensive Outpatient Program (IOP) for people in Muscatine and surrounding communities. As part of the UnityPoint Health network, the center is positioned to offer reliable, accessible substance abuse treatment without requiring individuals to leave their communities for residential placement.

The IOP track at New Horizons is designed for people who need more clinical structure than a standard outpatient program provides — including those stepping down from residential treatment and looking for continued accountability and support. Both levels of care run Monday through Friday during daytime hours, allowing participants to maintain work schedules and family commitments while staying engaged in their recovery.

One of the distinguishing features of New Horizons is its explicit commitment to serving individuals who are Deaf or hard of hearing. Substance abuse treatment programs that accommodate this population are uncommon, and the availability of these services at a community-based outpatient center in Muscatine reflects a meaningful gap being filled in eastern Iowa's recovery landscape.

For individuals in the Deaf and hard of hearing community seeking an outpatient program or IOP, New Horizons offers a rare local option within a CARF-accredited, professionally supervised treatment setting.

A frequent barrier to entering addiction treatment is uncertainty about cost and insurance coverage. New Horizons accepts Medicaid, state insurance, private insurance, self-pay, sliding scale fees, and financial assistance — one of the broader payment access profiles among outpatient recovery centers in Iowa. This range of options is especially important for individuals in rural communities where treatment resources and financial flexibility may be limited.

Prospective clients and family members can reach the center by phone at (563) 264-9409 or by email at [email protected] to discuss payment options and program availability. The administrative team is available Monday through Friday, 8:00 a.m. to 5:00 p.m.

New Horizons holds accreditation from CARF International, a respected independent accrediting body for rehabilitation and behavioral health organizations. CARF accreditation signals that a program has met rigorous standards for quality, accountability, and person-centered service delivery — factors that matter when choosing a long-term recovery partner rather than a short-term solution.

For families and individuals evaluating outpatient rehab options in Muscatine County, CARF accreditation at New Horizons provides a documented, third-party quality signal alongside the broader clinical and operational support of the UnityPoint Health system.
