Program Highlights

Societal expectations and stereotypes often discourage men from seeking help, leading many to hide their struggles. Addiction treatment can be especially taboo for men, as traditional norms encourage self-reliance and discourage vulnerability. If this describes you, Caron's rehab program is designed to meet your needs with peer support, a private space for treatment, and expert guidance to build a foundation for a resilient, sustainable recovery.


Your treatment is clinically driven based on your needs and progress, incorporating detox and assessment and other services and programs that meet your needs and life situation. An expert and compassionate clinical and medical staff works as a team to maximize your care so that you have a stable foundation for recovery.


Our comprehensive neurocognitive approach integrates advanced technologies targeting the brain alongside traditional, evidence-based therapy modalities, capitalizing on neuroplasticity to rewire the brain, optimize function, and aid and advance the body’s natural ability to heal itself—creating a foundation for self-regulation and resilience.

Rating: 5 out of 5 stars

When I first arrived to The Caron Foundation I was completely hopeless and near death due to a life of over 2 1/2 decades of drug use. I was scared, afraid and unsure if I would even make it to see 1 single day of sobriety. I can happily say that I’m living life to the best of my ability today and I’m finally happy and healthy again for once. I owe everything to Caron. They literally saved my life!!!
