What We Do
Learn how DiversityInCare can help you break the cycle of addiction
With an addiction comes a variety of issues. Our tailor made intervention support plan is designed to deal with ALL the underlying issues causing the dependency, focusing on the person and not the addiction.
With that said DiversityInCare’s approach to care, complements the support required to help women with addictions.
Our expertise’s on helping women, affected by issues linked to drug and alcohol abuse, enables us to avoid triggering trauma reactions.
Each woman has a unique history and specific triggers. There is no single profile. For women with addictions, they are looking for a safe environment, to be heard and empathy.
Our mission is to prevent and reduce drug and alcohol related issues, and transform how care for addiction is delivered, especially for women.
Our services range from second stage housing to one-to-one support. Our focus is to help people move from crisis to confidence.
Our CEO explains “I wanted to set up a charity that would provide a service for the under-served and hard to reach communities. These services would not only provide the treatment needed but get to the root cause of the problem”.
