Emerge does not offer substance abuse services. Anyone who comes to Emerge and is abusive and has any substance abuse issues has two things to address. During group sessions we discuss how alcohol and other drugs do not cause abuse, but may escalate it. Emerge makes referrals for substance abuse evaluations when needed, and receives reports from probation officers regarding mandated substance abuse testing.
