Free guidance
Someone to help you find the right care.
We help people and families find the right addiction treatment anywhere in Greater St. Louis. It’s free. We talk by phone or video.
Three steps. You don’t need a plan to start.
You reach out
Call, or send a few lines. You don’t have to explain everything.
We talk
By phone or video, at a time that works for you. We listen first, then walk you through the options.
We help you get there
We find the right place, help set up the first appointment, and check in until you’re connected.
After detox or treatment
The days after detox or a residential stay are often the hardest. You leave with a referral and a phone number, and setting it up is on you. The office is far. The first opening is weeks out. Nobody calls back.
That’s where we’re most useful. We help line up the next step before the plan falls apart, whether you’re heading home or into recovery housing.
For families
When someone you love is using, you become the researcher, the driver and the one who lies awake. You can talk with us whether or not they’re ready.
We’ll listen, explain the options, help you get ready for the day they say yes, and help you find support for yourself too.
Can I call if the person I love doesn’t want help?
Yes. You don’t need their permission to learn the options. When a door opens, you’ll be ready.
Will you tell them I called?
No. We don’t contact anyone unless you ask us to.
What does it cost?
Nothing. We don’t bill you or your insurance.
What if it’s an emergency?
Call 911 if someone is in danger or may be overdosing. If you have naloxone (Narcan), use it while you wait. For a mental health crisis, call or text 988.
For case managers and discharge planners
If you’re sending someone out with a referral in hand, we can be the person who helps them use it. We talk with them or their family, help set up the next step, and stay with them until they’re connected.
- No charge to them or to you.
- We send people wherever is right for them. Often that’s a program you already work with.

Why it’s free
Helping people find the right care, wherever that is, is how we get to know the people and programs here, and earn a place among them.
The other reason is simpler. People in recovery help the next person. That’s how a lot of us got here.
