approved provider The Lotus Center Inc. provides aid to members of our community facing the struggles found with substance use disorders. We provide a continuum of services driven by human empathy and empowerment in dedication to quality treatment of the whole person: body, mind, and spirit. In striving to meet clients where they are at and work with them to set goals for the treatment; we neither support nor condemn the substance use, but instead encourage them to explore the option of rebirth. We offer outpatient treatment groups, chemical use assessments, housing support services, and are a Naloxone access point through the Steve Rummler HOPE Network. The Lotus Center, Inc. takes a harm reduction approach to working with our clients. While abstinence remains the ultimate goal for most clients, we understand it may not be achievable, nor desirable, for everyone. Any positive change is met with encouragement and seen as a step in the right direction. The program does not depend solely on traditional 12-Step models, but it does support those who find this approach beneficial. Our hope is that even for those who may not find continuous abstinence; if offered support, they can find some freedom from substances, regain a sense of purpose and find new direction within their community.

Peer support professionals are people who have been successful in the recovery process and have received training that enables them to use their similar lived experience to assist others effectively, focusing on the recovery needs and empowering individuals to make positive life changes. Peer support professionals in brain injury can work with individuals as they adjust to life after injury and work towards rehabilitation and independence.

Power of Patients has created a novel, FREE, customizable, app to help patients and caregivers track their brain injury symptoms and triggers. Then they can share their reports with their healthcare providers and receive more personalized care. Our mission is to engage, inform, and empower people with brain injuries.
