Shepherds Shelter/Ross Rehab

Shepherds Shelter/Ross Rehab provides comprehensive addiction treatment through residential treatment and outpatient program options designed to meet individuals at different stages of their recovery journey. The residential treatment program houses up to 54 participants in a structured environment where they can focus entirely on overcoming substance use disorders while building connections within the recovery community.

The outpatient program serves those who need ongoing substance abuse treatment while maintaining work, family, or educational responsibilities. Both programs utilize Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) to help participants identify and change thinking patterns that contribute to addictive behaviors, providing practical tools for long-term recovery success.

As a faith-based recovery center, Shepherds Shelter integrates spiritual principles throughout its treatment approach while maintaining professional clinical standards. This spiritual and treatment approach to healing addresses not just the physical aspects of addiction, but also the emotional and spiritual components that many find essential to lasting recovery.

The facility's location on beautiful landscaped grounds surrounded by peaceful farmland reinforces this holistic philosophy, providing a natural setting that supports reflection and healing. Operating as a 501c3 non-profit organization since 1999, Shepherds Shelter remains focused on serving the recovery community rather than generating profits.

Shepherds Shelter specializes in serving veterans, seniors and older adults, and individuals with complex needs including trauma/PTSD and co-occurring disorders. Veterans often find particular value in the structured, community-oriented environment that honors their service while addressing substance abuse treatment needs.

The recovery center's expertise with dual diagnosis ensures that individuals with co-occurring mental health conditions receive integrated care rather than separate treatment for addiction and mental health issues. Court-ordered participants also find appropriate programming that meets legal requirements while fostering genuine recovery engagement.

Shepherds Shelter maintains both CARF and Joint Commission accreditation, demonstrating commitment to quality standards in addiction treatment delivery. The facility also holds AODE licensing and ASAM accreditation, ensuring that treatment approaches align with recognized best practices in the recovery field.

Payment options include Medicaid, private insurance, self-pay, and sliding scale arrangements, making substance abuse treatment accessible regardless of financial circumstances. This commitment to accessibility reflects the facility's non-profit mission and dedication to serving the broader recovery community in Montgomery County and surrounding areas.
