LIMA UMADAOP: Our Philosophy, Our Mission & Our Purpose

Our Philosophy UMADAOP provides programming with the be- lief that substance abuse is best prevented and treated when the cultural dynamics of a group are addressed and included in the process of preven- tion, treatment recovery and education. Chemical dependency is viewed as an illness of the total person, which has physiological, psychological, social-cultural and spiritual components that re- quire a holistic approach. Our Mission At Lima UMADAOP, our mission is to create a saf- er and healthier community by reducing the inci- dence and prevalence of violence, poly substance use/abuse, and the negative effects they impose on at-risk individuals and families. We are com- mitted to implementing evidence-based strate- gies that prioritize harm reduction and well-being. Through our dedicated efforts, we strive to pro- vide a nonjudgmental and supportive environment where individuals and families facing vulnerabili- ties can find resources, education, and assistance tailored to their unique needs. Our harm reduction approach is rooted in compassion, understand- ing, and the belief that every step towards positive change matters.

MYRTLE BOYKIN-LIGHTON

CHIEF EXECUTIVE OFFICER

We recognize that complete elimination of certain behaviors might not always be immediately achievable, but we firmly believe that by taking incremental steps towards harm reduction, we can significantly improve lives and promote a sense of empowerment. Our programs and services are designed to foster self-awareness, provide access to resources, and create a platform for open dialogue, enabling individuals and families to make informed decisions about their well-being. Through partnerships with the community, medical professionals, social services, and other stakeholders, we aim to be a driving force in reducing harm related to violence and poly substance use/abuse. By offering a range of harm reduction strategies, counseling, education, and advocacy, we endeavor to create a safer and more inclusive environment for all. Join us in our mission to empower individuals and families, promote informed choices, and foster a community that thrives on harm reduction and well-being. Together, we can make a lasting impact and pave the way for a healthier future. Our Purpose

Our harm reduction strategies are designed to re- duce the negative consequences associated with substance abuse while promoting safer choices. We believe that by providing education, resources, and avenues for early intervention, we can empower indi- viduals to make informed decisions about their health and future. Collaboration is at the heart of our approach. We work hand in hand with the community, youth, families, and human service providers to cultivate an environment where compassion, understanding, and shared knowl- edge lead the way. By offering prevention programs, reducing stigma, and enhancing the skills of service providers, we collectively contribute to a healthier and more resilient community. Join us in embracing the principles of harm reduc- tion as we strive to create positive change and build a community that values the well-being and dignity of every individual. Together, we can make lasting prog- ress towards reducing the impact of substance abuse and fostering a safer, healthier future for all.

Lima UMADAOP is deeply committed to its prima- ry purpose: increasing community understanding of substance abuse through comprehensive education and awareness programs, breaking down barriers that hinder early identification and treatment, delivering targeted prevention initiatives for youth, and enhanc- ing the awareness and sensitivity of human service providers. In alignment with our purpose, we firmly believe in a harm reduction approach that centers on empathy, collaboration, and pragmatic steps towards a health- ier community. Our commitment to harm reduction serves as the foundation of all our endeavors, reflect- ing our dedication to the well-being of individuals, families, and the community at large. We recognize that substance abuse is a complex is- sue that requires multifaceted solutions. By prioritiz- ing harm reduction, we acknowledge that the journey towards recovery may involve incremental changes and setbacks. Through our programs and services, we aim to create an environment that fosters open dialogue, embraces diverse perspectives, and offers nonjudgmental support to individuals and families on their unique paths to well-being.

adult treatment Addiction is a Treatable Disorder Addiction is a complex disorder that affects millions of individuals worldwide. It impacts not only the person struggling with addiction but also their loved ones. Fortunately, there are effective treatment op- tions available to help individuals overcome addiction and achieve lasting recovery. Our comprehensive range of services is designed to address the diverse needs of individuals seeking help for substance abuse disorders.

Screening: Determining the Severity of Substance Use Before commencing any treat- ment, it is crucial to assess the severity of substance use and identify the appropriate lev- el of care. All participants in our program will undergo a Screening, Brief Intervention, and Referral to Treatment (S-Birt) screening. This screen- ing helps our experienced pro- fessionals determine the level of treatment required based on medical and psychologi- cal conditions. It ensures that individuals receive the right support to begin their recovery journey, prevent relapse, and improve their chances of sus- tained sobriety. Inpatient Services: Providing Intensive Rehab Support For individuals with a high po- tential for relapse or those re- quiring a higher level of care, our inpatient services offer in-

tensive rehabilitation support. Inpatient treatment, also known as residential treatment, pro- vides a structured environment where clients can focus solely on their recovery. Our program is specifically tailored for clients diagnosed with alcohol or drug addiction, aiming to provide the highest level of rehab services. Remarkably, over 70% of our housing graduates continue to maintain sobriety, secure gain- ful employment, and live inde- pendently in the community. Outpatient Services: Structured Care for Continuing Recovery Our outpatient services consist of two programs: the Intensive Outpatient Program (IOP) and the Non-Intensive Outpatient Program (NIOP). These pro- grams offer a structured and supportive environment for adults with substance abuse dis- orders. Participants receive in- dividual and group sessions that

provide information, assistance, support, and motivation to main- tain abstinence from alcohol and other drugs. The IOP is a 13-week program that requires a minimum of 9 hours per week, with services provided at least 3 to 4 days per week. On the other hand, the NIOP is also a 13-week program but requires a minimum of 6 hours per week, with services provided at least 2 days per week. Both programs are designed to meet the unique needs of indi- viduals seeking flexible treatment options while maintaining their daily responsibilities. Medicated Assisted Treatment (MAT): A Holistic Approach Research has shown that a combi- nation of medication, counseling, and behavioral therapies is highly effective in treating substance use disorders. Our Medicated Assist- ed Treatment (MAT) program

Additional Services: A Comprehensive Approach Our comprehensive range of services extends beyond the core treatment programs. We offer a variety of additional services designed to address the individual needs of our cli- ents: Individual/Group Counseling: Clients have the opportuni- ty to meet individually and in group settings with licensed treatment professionals. These sessions provide assistance in achieving treatment goals and objectives by exploring alco- hol and other drug-related issues. Assessments: Our licensed treatment professionals conduct comprehensive assessments to gain a complete clinical pic- ture of each individual. These assessments aid

provides a whole-patient approach to recov- ery. By combining medication with counsel- ing and therapy, we aim to address the phys- ical, psychological, and behavioral aspects of addiction. MAT has proven successful in helping individuals manage cravings, reduce withdrawal symptoms, and maintain long- term sobriety. Recovery Support: Enhancing Treatment Techniques In addition to evidence-based treatment techniques, we also offer recovery support services to enhance and complement the re- covery journey. Recovery-oriented care and support systems play a crucial role in help- ing individuals with mental and substance use disorders successfully manage their con- ditions. These services provide additional tools, resources, and strategies to support in- dividuals in achieving their treatment goals and maintaining long-term recovery.
