Current Efforts

ERC Board and staff are working on several projects, including policies and procedures, designing new program materials, increasing volunteerism, and creating a positive and more recognizable community presence.

The ERC is also working to be able to accept private insurance for detox and for residential services..

Our doors are always open to welcome returning friends, family, and alumni. We have lots of things that volunteers can do to help. If you want to be of service, to witness the growth of our residents, to contribute your talents to our tasks, and to experience the excitement, enthusiasm and hope, stop in. The coffee is on!

ERC Outpatient services

Outpatien is growing! We expect to add a new group to our schedule, and continue to host community 12 step meetings. The staff reports intakes are on the increase, and we are eager to increase our ability to serve the community.

The program is looking at additional funding streams, including Drug Medi-cal, private insurance, CSMP, and private pay. If you want more information, just call (530) 275-1076.

Focus on an Alumnus:

"I would like to thank the Empire Recovery Center for saving my life. I have been in and out of the program for 20 years, and I've always struggled with my recovery. Something about the Empire and the way I was treated while in detox really showed me that I am a good person, and life is better without booze and drugs in my life."

M.C.R.

We are so grateful for all our volunteers who share countless hours of energy, wisdom, creativity, caring, and involvement. Our volunteers make sure all kinds of details get attention, from providing cooking classes, Big Book study classes, making copies of packets and brochures, tidying up the environment, transporting residents to appointments, sharing sober living opportunities, and being positive, effective influences of recovery and hope to our residents.

Special thanks go to Kathy Johnson and Beth Freeman, Shasta Regional Community Foundation, for visiting and offering us encouragement and suggestions for growth and improvement.
