Residential Treatment Services of Alamance, Inc. is a licensed, long-term residential addiction and mental health recovery program in Burlington, North Carolina that provides structured, 24-hour care for adults working to overcome alcohol or drug dependence, trauma, or co-occurring mental health concerns. Established in 1971 as Wesley Hall of Alamance, RTSA blends clinical stabilization, residential living, and recovery-oriented programming.
Residential Detoxification and Stabilization Integration
At its Hall Avenue campus, RTSA offers crisis stabilization and medically supervised detoxification services for adults whose substance use requires clinical oversight and early recovery support. This safe, live-in phase helps individuals manage withdrawal and begin the recovery process before transitioning to longer residential engagement.
Extended Residential Treatment With Routine and Support
Beyond detox, the center provides residential treatment and halfway house settings where participants live onsite and engage in structured daily routines that combine group and individual counseling, relapse-prevention planning, 12-Step-informed work, coping skill development and peer support. The residential environment reinforces accountability and consistent participation in recovery activities that mirror many aspects of everyday life.
Continuity of Care With Transitional and Supportive Housing
RTSA’s continuum of services includes transitional housing, sober living homes and recovery residences for men and women as they progress through recovery, helping reinforce stability as residents transition from intensive involvement to independent daily life. Referrals to community treatment and support services are integrated into the program to strengthen long-term outcomes.
A Residential Setting Addressing Addiction and Mental Health Together
Because Residential Treatment Services of Alamance serves people with both addiction and serious mental health conditions, the program emphasizes dual-focus engagement, helping residents work on substance use patterns alongside behavioral health challenges within a safe, structured environment built on daily routine, peer accountability, and therapeutic support.
