Prevention and Recovery Center (PaRC) in Houston offers Intensive Outpatient Drug Rehab and Alcohol Treatment Programs (IOP). We treat adults and young adults. An evaluation at PaRC is the first step in finding out if IOP is right for you. Outpatient addiction treatment is most effective for patients who have finished an inpatient drug rehab program. However, some patients may begin treatment directly in an outpatient drug rehab program. Read more about our admission process and the difference between inpatient drug rehab versus outpatient.

“My favorite part of PaRC’s outpatient program was Process Group. After just a couple of weeks of attending, I was able to discuss my problems and open up to not only my counselor but to the members of my group as well. Being able to talk about my problems was very therapeutic. I would wholeheartedly recommend this program to anyone who is sick and tired of being sick and tired.” – Joshua K., PaRC Alumnus
After you complete the program, long-term aftercare begins. Aftercare solidifies your new sobriety. It’s been shown that patients who have a strong aftercare program like PaRC’s have better sobriety over the long term. Read more about our Aftercare Program.
Addiction is a chronic disease that may result in the loss of your well-being, relationships, possessions, health, career and other things you hold dear to you. Fortunately, many insurance plans cover some or all of the cost of treatment. Don’t wait to get the treatment you need. PaRC accepts most insurance plans and self-pay.
