Avenues Recovery Center at Eastern Shore
December 21, 2020
Avenues Recovery Center is hosted a grand opening and ribbon-cutting ceremony for their new Avenues Recovery Center at Eastern Shore location. Avenues has gained renown nationwide for their unique community-based detox and residential substance abuse treatment programs.
The new facility has been vacant for the last few years and previously served as a mental health facility. It has been extensively renovated and is now a beautiful modern campus. The 40,000 square foot facility and 7.75 acre grounds are located immediately adjacent to a small lake and contain a variety of amenities and activities beneficial to recovery. Game rooms, lounges, baseball fields, basketball courts, large indoor gym, volleyball, yoga space, and a slew of other resources are just a sampling of what is available.
Joe Weisbord, Executive Director, spoke about the importance of a new residential facility during the Coronavirus pandemic. “At the heart of long term treatment and recovery is connection,” Weisbord said, “lack of connection during lockdowns and quarantine have been a driver of the large uptick in relapses and overdoses, Avenues is ready to take that challenge head on.”
