Abstinence Based Programs

Lookout offers a variety of abstinence-based programming, including residential and drop-in style services. 

Our abstinence-based homes are supportive housing and recovery programs which help guests set and achieve goals that support stability and wellness. Programming includes group activities, life skill building, education, employment training and counselling. We aim to create an environment where our guests can develop the tools to avoid relapse, recognize signs and potential triggers, create support networks and work towards their individual goals. Most programming is in a group setting so guests can develop and reinforce interpersonal relationships and recovery goals with additional supports and boundaries.
