Treatment Programs At Into Action

Into Action offers a three stage recovery continuum for men seeking long term freedom from addiction. Each stage builds on the last, providing increasing independence while maintaining support and accountability.

First Stage Residential Program

Supportive Recovery

First Stage emphasises stable routines and recovery tools that help men manage triggers, build life skills, and prepare for the next level of care.

60 Days

The First Stage Residential Program is a 60 day structured recovery program in a safe, supportive, home-like setting

Residents live alongside other men in recovery while following a daily schedule of therapeutic activities, educational groups, process groups, individual counselling, support group meetings, and aftercare planning. This stage builds a foundation of recovery skills, coping strategies, and personal insight that are essential for long-term sobriety.

Key Elements of Stage One

60 day residential commitment
Structured daily schedule with individual and group sessions
Educational and process groups
One-on-one counselling
Support group meetings including AA, NA, and SMART Recovery
Aftercare planning

Second Stage Transitional Program

Second Stage focuses on reinforcing sober living skills and confidence while still providing support and accountability as residents transition toward independent life.

30 Days

The Second Stage Transitional Program is offered after completion of the First Stage.

This is a 30 day transitional housing program designed for those who want to strengthen their recovery before returning home or moving forward. Residents remain clean and sober, participate in support meetings, complete daily chores, and follow house expectations while enjoying more independence than in Stage One. Work or school obligations can continue during this stage.

Key Elements of Stage Two

Daily chore and household responsibilities
Accountability through rules, curfew, and structure

Third Stage helps reduce the risk of relapse by providing continued structure and accountability while residents practice independent life skills in a supportive recovery community.

Duration Varies

The Third Stage Program is for men who have completed both the First and Second Stage programs and want continued support while they solidify their recovery.
