About New Directions

New Directions is an outpatient substance abuse treatment program operated by Highland Health Systems, serving adults in Calhoun and Cleburne Counties, Alabama. The program also treats co-occurring mental health and addiction conditions, and provides specialized services for criminal justice clients. New Directions offers community-based treatment with priority admission for pregnant women, women with children and individuals with HIV.

Tailored Treatment

New Directions doesn’t directly provide detox services but the staff can provide assessments and referrals for guests requiring withdrawal management. The center specializes in treating adults with co-occurring mental health issues through flexible outpatient programming. Services range from one hour per month to intensive outpatient programs requiring eight hours per week, with customized treatment plans.

Treatment integrates various therapy methods and motivational interviewing in both individual and group formats. Sessions focus on addressing underlying causes of addiction while building practical coping skills, with intensity adjusted to meet each client’s clinical needs and progress.

Drug Court and Criminal Justice Programs

New Directions partners with Adult Drug Court and Family Drug Court to provide diversionary treatment as an alternative to incarceration for substance related charges. The program also offers DUI education, including a 12-hour Level I program and a 24-hour Level II intensive track for repeat offenders. This focuses on supporting clients in meeting legal obligations while pursuing recovery.

The program accepts Medicaid, Medicare, private insurance, TRICARE and offers sliding scale fees and payment assistance for qualified guests.
