Addiction is a chronic, relapsing disease. Merely getting an addicted loved one to enter treatment is rarely sufficient to end the cyclic nature of addiction. Essential to attaining long-term recovery is continued family and professional involvement through treatment (to prevent checking out against medical advice) and into early recovery when relapse is so probable. ARISE Continuing Care is designed to support families in bridging the gap between the addiction-driven life they have come to consider “the norm” and the unknown freedom of life in recovery.
The ARISE Intervention is an invitational, non-secretive, gradually-escalating process. It empowers families by reinstating and reaffirming their intrinsic strength, resilience and hope which is so often lost in the face of addiction. The three escalating levels of the ARISE Intervention are used only as needed. In fact, of the 83% of individuals who chose to enter treatment using the ARISE Intervention, over half (55%) enter treatment following the first family meeting (Level 1). Only 2% of families move on to Level 3. The amount of time a family progresses through the levels varies depending on each family’s unique situation. When there is an immediate safety concern, the Certified ARISE Interventionist may choose to progress through all three levels in one setting.
The ARISE Intervention has been extensively researched in studies funded by the National Institute of Drug Abuse (NIDA) and is considered an Evidence-Based, Best Practice method for treating addicted individuals and their families. ARISE has demonstrated an 83% success rate within 3 weeks, results which have since been duplicated in real world settings. Subsequent studies have shown a 61% sobriety rate at 1 year with an additional 10% improved.

Why Arise Interventions?
Using a compassionate Invitational Intervention™, the ARISE Continuum of Care is a gradually-escalating process that leads your loved one into appropriate treatment and recovery. The addicted individual is invited to join the process right from the beginning with no surprises, no secrets, no coercion, and absolute respect and love. ARISE introduces the addicted person and the family to a new life of recovery and healing. The individual does not need to hit bottom before getting help.
The ARISE process breaks the cycle of repeated disappointment and failure without the blame, shame, and guilt that accompanies the disease. It brings healing to family, friends and co-workers who come together to build a solid recovery network. It works because the entire network is involved, and every decision is made by the majority. There is no opportunity for the addicted individual to pressure anyone "one-on-one" which would let the disease win. The focus of ARISE is on both individual and family healing and recovery. ARISE gets over 83% of addicted individuals into treatment, with 61% sober by the end of the first year.
The ARISE Intervention is directed towards getting the addicted loved one into treatment with the least possible effort through a loving, compassionate and non-blaming First Call and First Meeting. The support system is mobilized to form a committed Intervention Network to motivate the addicted individual into treatment. Phase A has three levels and the goal is to stop at the first level that works:
Level 1, "The First Call", starts when a Concerned Other calls a Certified ARISE Interventionist for a free phone consultation, and is coached to set up the First Meeting of the Intervention Network. 56% of addicted individuals enter treatment at Level 1.
Level 2, "Strength in Numbers", begins If they have not entered treatment during Level 1. The Intervention Network acts as a Board of Directors, so no one deals one-on-one with the addicted individual. By the end of 2 to 5 Intervention Network meetings, 80% of addicted individuals have entered treatment.
Level 3, "The Formal ARISE Intervention", is held if treatment entry has not occurred during Level 2. At this meeting serious consequences are put in place if the addicted individual does not enter treatment. By this point, 83% of addicted individuals have entered treatment.
ARISE Continuing Care begins when the addicted individual enters treatment, and lasts for 6 months. The goals are individual and family healing and recovery. It includes, if possible, the family and individual becoming involved in 12-step program. The Certified ARISE Interventionist works collaboratively with the addicted individual, the treatment center, and the family to ensure treatment completion, relapse prevention, and the resolution of grief and other problems at the root of the pain and the addictive disease. ARISE Continuing Care focuses on the Certified ARISE Interventionist working with the Intervention Network and addicted individual to prevent relapse, initiate long-term recovery, and complete the work towards family healing and recovery. This includes ensuring that work, life style, social circle, family relationships and personal decisions made for personal growth in Continuing Care are happening for individual and family.
