Gateway understands that substance abuse treatment services delivered within the institutional setting are extremely effective for the right level of offender; however, others can be successfully treated without the need for incarceration. In fact, our core belief is that for certain non-violent offenders, adequate interventions and accountability can be provided within the community context, in a much more cost effective alternative than mere incarceration. Our Community Corrections treatment services are designed to meet this need.
Gateway’s Community Corrections programs include intensive and supportive outpatient counseling, re-entry / transition programs, and more highly structured day reporting centers. Interventions are most effective through appropriately matching the offenders’ needs with the correct level of treatment intensity and supervision.
