LEVEL UP RESIDENTIAL SUPPORTIVE RECOVERY FOR YOUNG PEOPLE IN THE COMOX VALLEY
From stabilization to independence.
Level UP @ The Station is a live-in recovery program (90 to 180 days) available to youth ages 16 to 21. With individual and group counselling, life skills support, and connections to school and employment, youth practice recovery tools in a stable environment while building toward independence.
Supportive recovery in a residential setting.
Level UP offers a chance to practice the tools learned in treatment, with a focus on transition toward adulthood and independence. While in residence, clients stay in their own private suite in a youth independent living facility that is staffed 24 hours per day. Youth have access to shared common areas (kitchen, dining room, recreation room, laundry).
The length of the program is typically 90 to 180 days, giving youth time to establish stability and practice recovery before returning to the community. Level UP is voluntary.
