You are not an Alcoholic or Drug Addict - Leave that notion behind you!

The St. Jude Program is built on the fundamental idea that all people, always move in the direction of what makes them happy. If an individual is presented with a list of new options in the basic areas of life such as career, relationships, hobbies, and family life that make sense to them and will provide a pathway to a fulfilling life, that individual will naturally gravitate toward those options. That is St. Jude's - Option Presentation Methodology! It works because it is based on timeless principles, common sense and the science of physical brain change - Neuroplasticity.

Drug Rehab or Drug Treatment? What is it, and who really needs it?

How many times have you heard someone say, "Hey, so and so just went to drug rehab or drug treatment." Then within a few months or even a few weeks, that same person is back in rehab after a horrendous relapse episode. Unfortunately, this scenario is not unusual because drug treatment programs (including alcohol rehabilitation programs) here in America are based on coercing vulnerable people to believe they are powerless over their actions and habits.

The science of Neuroplasticity, coupled with common sense tells a different story. People can change. We do have control over our actions, habits, thoughts, behaviors and emotions. We are empowered individuals when given the proper education and information. That is exactly what St. Jude's provides - empowerment over your counterproductive habits. We teach a method that brings success because our curriculum is based on positive reinforcement, building positive relationships, and demonstrating options that are life changing to our guests.

Alcohol Rehab or Alcohol Treatment? What is it and how can you help me?

We are not alone in our assertion that substance usage habits are not diseases. Please take a few minutes to understand what research is now telling us about the ineffectiveness of alcohol rehab, alcohol treatment, drug rehab, etc.

First it is important to understand that the disease theory is just that - a theory. Additionally, it is important to understand that this theory is only accepted as fact by the alcohol rehab, alcohol rehabilitation, and the alcohol and drug treatment industry here in the United States. The rest of the world considers the disease theory of addiction pure bunk.
