Minnesota alcohol treatment goes back to its roots

With their affordable approach, The Retreat is refreshing

The Retreat in Wayzata has developed a model that brings us back to a time when things were much simpler.  Minnesota alcohol treatment has not always been as complex as it is today.  There was a time when treatment was a place where people simply took a break from their busy lives to work the 12 Steps.  With this in mind, the Community of Recovering People or C.O.R.P, a non-profit organization in Minnesota, developed The Retreat. 

Founded in 1998, The Retreat has already helped over 7,000 individuals and their families recover from the ravages of alcoholism and drug dependency.  “Recovery doesn’t have to be complicated or expensive said John Leonard, Director of Marketing.  “The Retreat was designed to be affordable for everyone”.  At a time when Minnesota alcohol treatment can be tens of thousands of dollars, The Retreat’s affordable, spiritually grounded approach to recovery is very attractive.  They use the power of community and the 12 steps to help people recover.
