Roots to Recovery.

A parent's plain guide to our recovery program.

The Roots to Recovery room

Roots to Recovery supports parents working on substance use and mental health while their young children are nearby. Days are steady: meals, play, rest, and time outdoors. Parents take part in their own treatment the same day, then rejoin their child for routines like lunch or pickup.

Children gain steady adults and a predictable rhythm. They build language through books and songs. They learn to share and take turns. Small group care gives each child attention and a chance to be seen.

The program is tailored, empowering recovery for substance and mental health issues. Parents set goals and practice new skills while staying close to their children.

Roots to Recovery is one program in our continuum of care. It is tailored to substance and mental health issues. If you are adding this program to a cart or looking at next steps, you can ask our team what the day looks like and who it serves. A short call is the fastest way to get clear answers.

What this looks like in practice

Every day has a shape. Children eat together, play in small groups, rest, and go outside. Teachers talk with them, read, and help with transitions. Parents can expect to hear how the day went and what their child did.

For young children, this kind of steady care shows up at home. A child may fall asleep faster. They may use a calm voice when they want something. They may run to you with a drawing and tell you about their day. These are practical gains from a safe room, a set routine, and adults who pay attention.
