About CHC Addiction Services
This center offers focused support for men dealing with substance use disorders alongside mental health challenges through a 60–90 day residential recovery program. Clients receive care in a nurturing setting designed to encourage healing. Medication assisted treatment (MAT) is provided to ease withdrawal effects and reduce cravings for individuals with opioid addiction, using methadone, buprenorphine, and Vivitrol.
The program is centered on long-term behavioral change through structured individual counseling, encouragement in group therapy, and creative art-based sessions. Participants work on coping strategies, address unresolved trauma, and strengthen their mental and emotional resilience to support sustained sobriety. Specialized group options focus on addiction recovery, setting realistic motivational goals, and grief counseling, helping build self-assurance and safe, trusting connections within a recovery community.
Based in Akron, Ohio, the facility is conveniently located and offers a peaceful environment near the natural beauty of Cuyahoga Valley National Park. With 24 beds, it provides a calm, home-like atmosphere and continuous staffing around the clock. Residents typically share bedrooms and have access to outdoor lounges, exercise spaces, and meditation areas, allowing time for reflection, skill-building for emotion management, and full rest as they progress in recovery.
