What will happen when I come into a CRI service for the first time?
The first time you visit a CRI service you’ll meet with a trained member of staff who will speak to you about the type of help you need.
If we’re the right service for you, we’ll talk to you about your strengths and create a list of things you want to change. This will be the first step on your recovery journey.
If for any reason we aren’t best place for you to find help at this time, we’ll refer you to another more suitable service.
