CARS Residential Addiction Recovery Center (RARC) is a 60-bed, Men’s SUD (Substance Use Disorder) treatment program for men located 90 minutes northwest of Binghamton and 90 minutes southwest of Syracuse in Trumansburg, New York.

We believe in a holistic approach to treatment, providing clients with not only addiction counseling, but vocational counseling, many and diverse group options, as well as recreational opportunities that support their recoveries.

Initial Time at the Residential Program

Within 24 hours upon arrival, clients will complete checkups, meet with an addiction counselor, and get established with their case manager.

They will immediately begin working with their addiction counselor to develop a treatment plan.

On day one they will also be paired with a mentor, someone who can show them through the facility, help establish a schedule, and make their transition more comfortable.

Finally, the client and their primary counselor will work together to identify which groups they will participate in.
