The residential addiction services offered at Walden are open to adults only. Anchor Residential Treatment provides medically monitored detoxification, medical stabilization, counseling and continuing care planning services. Anchor is co-occuring capable, and we offer psychiatric services via on site, tele-technology, and referral services. While services in this intermediate care facility are based on individual need, the average length of stay is 21 days. For those eligible for ATR (Access to Recovery) Services, the Anchor program provides portal and care coordination services.

Anchor also offers on-site extended/long term residential care (residential services with Intensive Outpatient Treatment and, as needed mental health, psychiatric services, and medication assisted treatment) in a program called North Star. Both North Star and Compass offer long-term residential treatment options to adults. The Compass Program provides a half-way house environment for individuals seeking an environment supportive of stabilizing recovery. Individuals residing at Compass participate in treatment and care management services and have access to mental health/psychiatric services and medication assisted treatment.
