OPI's Phased System For Independence
OPI offers a wide spectrum of services. Whether it is therapeutic, educational, vocational or recreational, each service focuses on helping the Participant cope with the anxiety associated with making good choices and persevering while gaining independent living skills and learning to make good decisions as they move forward toward the goals they have set.

This is accomplished via our internal step-down process in which we continually re-assess each Participant as they work toward their goals: evaluating developmental gains and degrees of responsibility attained in order to help him/her achieve a gradual reduction in levels of supervision and greater independence.

In this way, OPI prepares the Participant to begin functioning more independently either by:

  • leaving OPI and moving on to continue either work or academic commitments, or,

  • utilizing further OPI support in the form of our AfterCare Program and/or Outpatient psychotherapy.

  • SEE ‘WHAT SETS US APART FROM OTHER PROGRAMS”

OPI welcomes young men and women ages 17-28 who are willing to commit to finding a sense of balance in their lives and their place as responsible members of society.

  • OPI isn’t suitable for those young adults who have used intravenous heroin or other opiates or who are in Stage 4 substance abuse characterized by escalating use of alcohol, drugs or “hard drugs” accompanied by deteriorating physical condition and inability to control use.
