What the Engagement Center Is — and Is Not
Engagement Centers are not homeless shelters and do not function as mental health crisis centers. They are specifically designed to support individuals experiencing intoxication from alcohol and other substances.
The goal is to provide a safe, monitored environment and connect individuals to recovery-centered services, resources, and information.
Designed for Substance Use-Related Concerns
The Engagement Center serves as a centralized hub where individuals can be safely monitored and connected to the services that best support their next step.
