Stonehenge Therapeutic Community provides a range of residential and community-based treatment services to individuals struggling with addiction and concurrent mental health issues. We recognize the role that trauma, marginalization, and oppression play in impacting the wellbeing of those we serve. Grounded in the Therapeutic Community model of treatment, the agency is committed to taking the journey together and supporting those with whom we work to grow, thrive, and contribute to society.
Stonehenge delivers long-term, intensive residential treatment services to those whose addiction/concurrent presentations are complex. Many of our clients enter treatment directly from the Federal and Provincial correctional systems. Working for us is an excellent opportunity for those interested in working with a specialized approach to addiction treatment and recovery from substance use.
