Addiction Treatment Services
The Salvation Army Addiction Treatment Services
Nestled in Nu‘uanu Valley on the island of O‘ahu, The Salvation Army’s Addiction Treatment Services offers a full continuum of care for adults struggling with substance use disorders — from initial treatment through ongoing recovery support. Since 1970, we’ve helped adult men and women build lasting recovery through compassionate, effective, individualized care.
Types of Treatment
Non-Medical Detoxification
A 3–7 day non-medical residential detoxification program providing a safe and supportive environment to detox from alcohol and other drugs. Services include assessment and treatment planning, medication administration, daily monitoring of medical condition and withdrawal symptoms, individual counseling, addiction/health education, assistance accessing community resources, case management, and referral to treatment and other recovery settings.
Residential Care
A structured program providing an intensive, individualized plan of recovery for severely addicted individuals and high-risk offenders needing a more structured environment. Services are gender-specific and include an average of 40 hours of face-to-face treatment activities weekly. Duration of stay is variable and designed to meet each individual’s needs.
Day/Outpatient Care
A structured program of day or evening sessions for the functioning individual able to maintain abstinence with professional support. Day Treatment sessions are 6 hours daily. Intensive Outpatient sessions are 3-hour sessions at least three times weekly. Outpatient sessions are up to 8 hours weekly. A minimum of 12 weeks of continuing care is provided after completion of primary treatment.

“There was a time where I was homeless and I didn’t have anywhere to go… I had no hope. I was ready to do whatever it took to become a good person, have a stable job, and become a great dad. My counselors at The Salvation Army ATS helped me do that and more. I now work for a great company that shows the same compassion as The Salvation Army. I’m helping others through my new job and that is empowering.”
— Daniel, ATS Graduate
