I have worked in the field of chemical dependency since 1991 for two of the finest treatment centers in the country. During this time period I continually asked myself what it is that I wanted to offer adult men in their lifelong recovery process.

The purpose of the Mark Houston Recovery Center is to provide a safe, secure environment free of alcohol and drugs for a minimum of 30 or 90 days for the adult male alcoholic/addict who wishes to recover and experience permanent sobriety.  Our belief is that alcoholism and drug addiction are lifelong, chronic, progressive diseases which demand a lifelong set of practices as a way of living if we are to experience permanent recovery.  Our commitment to our residents is this: we will provide a set of life skills and spiritual practices which will be incorporated and assimilated into their minds and hearts and allow them to recreate and reclaim their lives.
