About Cocaine and Alcohol Awareness Program
Cocaine and Alcohol Awareness Program provides high quality behavioral health and co-occurring mental health services for those who are financially limited in the Memphis, Tennessee, area. They aid people in overcoming chemical dependency, homelessness, domestic violence, victimization, and other self defeating behavioral health and co-occurring mental health disorder issues. Their addiction related services include residential treatment, outpatient treatment, and a homeless veterans housing program.
Residential treatment is available for anyone needing inpatient level care, regardless of their ability to pay. It’s a coed therapeutic environment that offers individual and group counseling and psychosocial support. Alcohol and drug education, life skills training, and relapse prevention are implemented into a highly structured and safe environment where deeper work can unfold. Random drug testing will take place throughout the program. You can stay there for a maximum of six months.
Outpatient treatment is for those who do not need the 24/7 support that comes with residential treatment. Everyone who participates in outpatient treatment will need to attend regularly scheduled sessions in the morning and evening hours. Anger management and relapse prevention will be addressed, along with personal concerns and goals. Six to nine hours of participation per week are expected, with an average stay of 90 days. Upon completion of the treatment program, you’re monitored through a two year program consisting of therapeutic groups and other support systems.
Their Homeless Veteran Residential Transitional Housing (HVRTH) Program is an innovative program that helps homeless veterans access and engage in behavioral health and addiction recovery services. This program delivers comprehensive treatment that focuses on your physical, mental, and behavioral health. Addiction treatment is addressed through traditional clinical models such as therapy and behavior modification. Examples of services include primary care services, affordable housing, introduction to moral reasoning, and social skills development. To support your long-term recovery, aftercare services, including career readiness training, transportation, and educational support, are available.
They operate as a sliding scale facility and don’t require insurance. However, if referrals are made to outside recovery resources, those facilities may be in-network with most commercial insurance plans. Speak with your individual provider to verify your coverage as out of network benefits can vary.

Levels of Care
Outpatient
Outpatient Programs (OP) are for those seeking mental rehab or drug rehab, but who also stay at home every night. The main difference between outpatient treatment (OP) and intensive outpatient treatment (IOP) lies in the amount of hours the patient spends at the facility. Most of the time an outpatient program is designed for someone who has completed an inpatient stay and is looking to continue their growth in recovery. Outpatient is not meant to be the starting point, it is commonly referred to as aftercare.
Medically Assisted Detox
Drug and alcohol addiction often takes a heavy toll on one's body. Over time, a physical dependence can develop, meaning the body physiologically needs the substance to function. Detox is the process of removing drugs and/or alcohol from the body, a process that can be lethal if mismanaged. Medical detox is done by licensed medical professionals who monitor vital signs and keep you safe, healthy, and as comfortable as possible as you go through detox and withdrawal.
Intensive Outpatient
CAAP’s Intensive Outpatient Program has established a treatment mode for Outpatient and Aftercare services. This focuses on helping the individual to understand that they may function without the use of mind altering substances in his or her life. They realize that the capacity for change is forever possible.
Inpatient
Residential Treatment is for those individuals in need of an intensive program where maybe an outpatient program has been tried and failed, or where there is no question that an individual has a problem greater than simple abuse, and/or where a change of environment is recommended. A change to a safe, sober, living environment from drug and/or alcohol availability or using friends, may be key to a persons recovery.
Sober Living Homes
Sober Living Houses (SLHs), aka sober homes or halfway houses, are safe, substance-free, supportive living facilities for those recovering from substance abuse. Ideal for those who've just been through inpatient or outpatient treatment, SLHs are supervised environments with rules that support sobriety, such as curfews, shared chores, and therapeutic meetings. Residents are also often trained on life skills and coping skills to make it easier to transition into society. SLHs also provide a strong sense of community that can lead to the kind of deep and lasting connections with other sober individuals that supports a new, healthy lifestyle.
Aftercare Support
Completing a drug or alcohol rehab program shouldn't spell the end of substance abuse treatment. Aftercare involves making a sustainable plan for recovery, including ongoing support. This can include sober living arrangements like halfway houses, career counseling, and setting a patient up with community programs like Alcoholics Anonymous (AA) or Narcotics Anonymous (NA).

Treatment
Alcoholism
The goal of treatment for alcoholism is abstinence. Those with poor social support, poor motivation, or psychiatric disorders tend to relapse within a few years of treatment. For these people, success is measured by longer periods of abstinence, reduced use of alcohol, better health, and improved social functioning. Recovery and Maintenance are usually based on 12 step programs and AA meetings.
Drug Addiction
When your day-to-day life is taken over by drug use, this is known as substance use disorder. If you abruptly stop using your drug of choice, you experience withdrawal symptoms. To overcome this cycle, professional drug rehab in Tennessee is usually needed.
Dual Diagnosis
Many of those suffering from addiction also suffer from mental or emotional illnesses like schizophrenia, bipolar disorder, depression, or anxiety disorders. Rehab and other substance abuse facilities treating those with a dual diagnosis or co-occurring disorder administer psychiatric treatment to address the person's mental health issue in addition to drug and alcohol rehabilitation.
Opioid Addiction
Opioid rehabs specialize in supporting those recovering from opioid addiction. They treat those suffering from addiction to illegal opioids like heroin, as well as prescription drugs like oxycodone. These centers typically combine both physical as well as mental and emotional support to help stop addiction. Physical support often includes medical detox and subsequent medical support (including medication), and mental support includes in-depth therapy to address the underlying causes of addiction.
Substance Abuse
Substance rehabs focus on helping individuals recover from substance abuse, including alcohol and drug addiction (both illegal and prescription drugs). They often include the opportunity to engage in both individual as well as group therapy.
Clinical Services
Experiential Therapy
Experiential therapy is a form of therapy in which clients are encouraged to surface and work through subconscious issues by engaging in real-time experiences. Experiential therapy departs from traditional talk therapy by involving the body, and having clients engage in activities, movements, and physical and emotional expression. This can involve role-play or using props (which can include other people). Experiential therapy can help people process trauma, memories, and emotion quickly, deeply, and in a lasting fashion, leading to substantial and impactful healing.
Family Therapy
Chemical dependency is a family disease. Therefore, family involvement in the healing process is a necessity. CAAP offers group and individual counseling that addresses family issues, concerns, and questions in order to provide an understanding of the concepts of chemical dependency and co-dependency.
Group Therapy
Group therapy is any therapeutic work that happens in a group (not one-on-one). The opportunity for clients to learn to reconnect with others, obtain feedback from their peers, and rediscover themselves as feeling human beings in a group setting. Group therapy involves treatment as well as processing interaction between group members.
Individual Therapy
In individual therapy, a patient meets one-on-one with a trained psychologist or counselor. Therapy is a pivotal part of effective substance abuse treatment, as it often covers root causes of addiction, including challenges faced by the patient in their social, family, and work/school life.
Life Skills
Life skills trainings involve all the skills a person must have in order to function successfully in the world. Life skills teaches the practical necessities of functioning in society, which sets clients up for success in life, and therefore sobriety. Depending on the individual needs of the individual or the group, subjects such as remedial reading, basic math for balancing a checkbook, problemÂsolving techniques, or conflict resolution can be discussed.Â
Trauma Therapy
Trauma therapy addresses traumatic incidents from a client's past that are likely affecting their present-day experience. Trauma is often one of the primary triggers and potential causes of addiction, and can stem from child sexual abuse, domestic violence, having a parent with a mental illness, losing one or both parents at a young age, teenage or adult sexual assault, or any number of other factors. The purpose of trauma therapy is to allow a patient to process trauma and move through and past it, with the help of trained and compassionate mental health professionals.
