About PRO – ACT Recovery Training Center
PRO ACT Recovery Training Center is an outpatient rehab center for adults in Philadelphia, Pennsylvania. They provide outpatient rehabilitation and supervised detox services for persons seeking to safely withdraw from substances.
Personalized Care for Young Adults in Philadelphia
The program caters to adults and young adults, with personalized services tailored to meet the needs of individuals ages 18 and over. They also offer support and education programs for family members and friends of persons in recovery which I think is a critical part of recovery because it helps you have a knowledgeable and understanding support system.
I’m impressed by the comprehensive ancillary services this facility provides, like peer support programs and certified recovery specialist training. They also have family education programs and advocacy services aimed at influencing public policy on addiction and recovery.
Convenient Location Near Navy Yard Philadelphia
The location of this facility stands out as a plus to me too, just miles from Navy Yard Philadelphia, a historic area offering green spaces and waterfront views. Fairmount Park is also nearby, one of the largest urban park systems in the country providing trails and recreational areas. For shopping and dining, the Reading Terminal Market is a renowned indoor farmers’ market offering diverse food options.

The center accepts a variety of payment methods including self payment and private health insurance. They also accept military insurance, Medicare, Medicaid and state financed insurance plans other than Medicaid. A sliding fee scale is available for eligible individuals based on income to make treatment affordable for clients who aren’t insured.

Treatments
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 rehab in Pennsylvania is devoted to the treatment of addiction. Levels of care, treatment methods, and settings differ, but the aim of each program is to end drug dependency and empower participants to achieve long-term recovery.
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.

Research clearly demonstrates that recovery is far more successful and sustainable when loved ones like family members participate in rehab and substance abuse treatment. Genetic factors may be at play when it comes to drug and alcohol addiction, as well as mental health issues. Family dynamics often play a critical role in addiction triggers, and if properly educated, family members can be a strong source of support when it comes to rehabilitation.
Group therapy is any therapeutic work that happens in a group (not one-on-one). There are a number of different group therapy modalities, including support groups, experiential therapy, psycho-education, and more. Group therapy involves treatment as well as processing interaction between group members.
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 trainings involve all the skills a person must have in order to function successfully in the world. These include time management, career guidance, money management, and effective communication. Truly successful addiction recovery is based on the ability to not only live substance-free, but to thrive. Life skills teaches the practical necessities of functioning in society, which sets clients up for success in life, and therefore sobriety.
