Addiction is an extremely prevalent disease in the United States. It affects people of all ages, ethnicities and incomes. Families that have watched loved ones battle with the stranglehold of addiction can attest to the power of this disastrous illness. The Owl's Nest Recovery Community is a place where addicts can come to find healing, guidance, and above all, themselves. Located in Florence, South Carolina, The Owl's Nest is set away from the urban hustle and allows its residents to find peace surrounded by nature. The Owl's Nest bases its program on properly applying the original twelve steps outlined in the program of Alcoholics Anonymous. The Owl's Nest is able to assist residents candidly because each of its staff members has experienced addiction and recovery in their own lives. They know what it feels like to be in the battle of addiction; this unique perspective allows them to impart insight to those seeking freedom from addiction. The Owl's Nest features an intensive 28 day program that can be followed up by an extended program providing spiritual growth and vocational rehabilitation. Both programs focus on the twelve step program, a time-tested and proven method of recovery. Upon completion of one or both of the primary programs, residents may also decide to stay in our Transitional Living Center to further solidify their foundation in recovery. The Owl's Nest believes in the program and values its success by having a significantly above average rate of long-term sobriety.
