NSR of Asheville, North Carolina, would like to reach out to those who may be looking for ways to beat their addictions. NSR of Asheville recommends a treatment model called Extended Care Recovery, a method which has been found to be more effective than other, more common Sober Living Homes, Halfway Houses, or Recovery Housing programs alone. NSR of Asheville is more, it is Extended Care. Visit their site at https://nsrofasheville.org/.

Our successful Extended Care Model combined with the peaceful atmosphere in the beautiful mountains of Asheville, NC, leads to overall well-being. It takes more than just sober living housing to produce long term success, it takes Extended Care. Reach out and let us show you what a program like ours can do for you.”

Many of NSR of Asheville’s residents have gone through the program, acheived sobriety, and gone on to write testimonials praising the Extended Care Recovery facility. One resident says about their experience at NSR of Asheville that, “NSR of Asheville was exactly what I needed in the early stages of my recovery! I spent so many years of my life hiding behind a bottle and I couldn’t take it anymore! Susan and her staff helped me to get back on my feet and start the process of moving on and loving life without the use of alcohol or drugs. After my three months here, I chose to stay in Asheville and continue to work on myself with their guidance. I couldn’t imagine my life today if I was still stuck in my old ways, Thank you, NSR of Asheville!"

One patient’s parent shares that, “My son completed three months of the treatment program, surrounded by kind, caring and compassionate staff, with all the skill sets required of true professionals to guide and assist him in living a productive, healthy, sober, and happy life. He flourished and started to smile and enjoy life again during those three months. He now is starting to build a career for himself and is enjoying the normal things in life that had been missing for so many years. As a family we have been blessed to have been connected with NSR of Asheville. Thank you.”
