"This is really a big deal. For over 30 years Orange County has needed this type of recovery resource," said Carl Mosen, founder of Sober Living by the Sea.
"The Network of Hope is usually the last line of defense for many of the addicted individuals who come to REACH," said Rial Barnett, REACH Chairman of the Board. "We find a bed in a qualified addiction treatment facility within a few hours after applying regardless of their financial situation. Our approach has delivered remarkable results because we place them in the right facility and stay connected to their progress every step of the way," said Mr. Barnett.
"Addicts who are committed to recovery can find financial aid in the form of Welcome Back Scholarships where REACH funds sober living arrangements and treatment while they get their lives back on track," said Jan Brewer, Executive Director of REACH.
REACH has formed a partnership with over 200 local addiction treatment providers and refers screened candidates for subsidized treatment. "One of the reasons the REACH model has been so successful is that we believe that addiction is a treatable disease," said Paul Alexander of National Therapeutic Services, Costa Mesa, CA. "We all have to step up and help those who are falling through the cracks because they don't have the financial support or insurance to pay for treatment. REACH is a perfect solution," said Mr. Alexander.
REACH receives scholarship funding via donations from individuals, foundations and corporations.
