How does Suncoast differ from other programs, including traditional 12 step programs?
A. Most conventional drug treatment programs don’t really teach a student to gain control over their own lives. They might be able to keep themselves from drinking or taking drugs by going to continuous meetings and having buddies that keep them inline, but that’s really not enough. The person hasn’t really regained control over their own lives or their addiction – they are constantly on alert to make sure they don’t slip.
