Dawn Farm is life changing! Anyone who has the opportunity to get help there, is fortunate! I will forever be thankful for the tough love I received there. I couldn’t say a bad thing about the program.

Review from Rehabs.com

So, this was my first inpatient rehab. I was not ready to stop using at the time, however I was court & family ordered. It took 2-3 weeks for me to get used to all the rules and just come around to completely new lifestyle changes. I wasn’t problematic, but this was all just so new and different than anything. After a few weeks, I started truly trying. I was following rules and trying my best. Well, I was already on the counselors bad side. I didn’t stand a chance. No matter how hard I tried, I just felt like the counselors gave me zero respect. And the counselors caused tons of drama too! If one small thing happened that upset one of them, it became the whole group’s problem, privileges would be taken away (even smoke breaks). It was just A LOT for a newly clean/sober person to deal with. Overall, I would say Dawn Farm has a militant approach to treatment and it’s lots of tough love. They are not even a little bit gentle. One big thing for me, is they only offered group therapy sessions and nothing one-on-one. In the end, I was kicked out of the program 2 months in for “breaking too many rules.” I was not ready to leave treatment. I do not feel like Dawn Farm helped me towards finally getting clean/sober. Thankfully I found a different program that really helped. I would not recommend this program to anyone.

I have seen long-term sobriety obtained by some who have not had success at other facilities...Large community of recovering individuals in the Ypsilanti/Ann Arbor area, who have either been through Dawn Farm, or who believe in the Dawn Farm mission, so they make themselves available to support and sponsor Dawn Farm clients.

They made me "sit in my feelings" - something as an alcoholic I'd never done. I learned that feelings pass! Duh! I still chant the Serenity Prayer when I find myself choosing anger. Knowing that all I can control are my attitudes and my behaviors is a relief, very freeing. Did I like all the rules there? No, of course not - but I followed them because I trusted that the staff knew about living sober - and I did not. I made a terrible choice, and had all the tools I needed to get and stay sober again. I have been sober now for more than 7 years. Dawn Farm and my sponsor helped me save my own life.
