Program Overview

The Healing Arts Recovery Program helps individuals in the early stages of sobriety engage in meaningful recovery activities by removing financial barriers and providing structured support. Our program is built around the belief that music and art therapy can play a powerful role in helping people process emotions, rebuild identity, and stay engaged in their recovery journey. Participants receive financial assistance via Treatment Stipends to access therapy and recovery services, along with structured guidance that encourages consistent participation in treatment activities. The program also includes Recovery Bonuses – direct cash payments - for verified sobriety, helping participants stay focused during the critical early stages of recovery. By combining creative therapy access, financial assistance, and a supportive program structure, Healing Arts for Recovery helps participants build stability, resilience, and momentum toward long-term sobriety.

Program Requirements

Participants agree to engage in a structured set of recovery activities designed to support consistent progress during early sobriety. These requirements help ensure participants remain actively involved in therapy and recovery support services.

The program begins with a short intensive phase that emphasizes frequent engagement with counseling, support meetings, and creative therapies. After this period, the program continues with a sustainable long-term structure.

First Two Weeks (Intensive Phase)

Participants complete a higher level of engagement during the initial phase of the program.

Two individual SUD counseling sessions per week (90 minutes each)
Five hours of recovery group meetings per week (AA, NA, or alternative support groups preferred by the participant)
Two music or art therapy sessions per week
Three case management sessions over the course of 2 weeks

This phase helps establish strong recovery routines and consistent engagement in therapeutic activities.

After the First Two Weeks

Following the intensive phase, participants transition into the ongoing program structure.

Continue with five hours of recovery group meetings per week (AA, NA, or alternative support groups preferred by the participant)
Continue with two music or art therapy sessions per week
One case management session per week

Participants may continue receiving Treatment Stipends and Recovery Cash Bonuses for up to twelve months, based on program engagement and verified sobriety.

Are experiencing financial hardship or challenges that makes accessing therapy difficult
Are open to engaging in music or art therapy as part of your recovery

A Few Things We Don’t Do

Transparency is important to us. To ensure participants clearly understand the role of Healing Arts for Recovery, there are several things our program does not do.

We don’t recommend treatment providers. Participants choose their own therapists, counselors, and recovery programs. We are not qualified nor ethically or legally able to make referrals or recommendations.
We’re not a treatment center. Healing Arts for Recovery does not provide clinical, medical, or counseling services directly. Our role is to support access to care.
We don’t discriminate. Participation is open regardless of race, religion, gender, background, or insurance status.
We don’t judge. Recovery journeys are personal, and participants are treated with dignity, respect, and compassion.

If anyone claiming to represent Healing Arts for Recovery violates these principles, we encourage you to report the concern.
