First Things First Inc provides outpatient substance abuse treatment services, a flexible level of care that allows individuals to receive professional treatment while maintaining their daily responsibilities at home, work, and school. Outpatient programs are effective for people with mild to moderate substance use disorders, those transitioning from higher levels of care, or individuals who have strong family and community support systems. The facility specializes in working with DUI and DWI offenders, offering evidence-based treatment that addresses the underlying addiction while meeting court-ordered requirements. This specialized focus ensures that clients receive treatment tailored to their legal circumstances and therapeutic needs, supporting both rehabilitation and public safety.
First Things First Inc accepts multiple forms of payment to ensure that cost is not a barrier to treatment. The facility works with Medicaid, private health insurance, military insurance (VA/Tricare), and self-payment options. If you have health insurance, the Mental Health Parity Act requires that substance abuse treatment be covered with the same benefits and protections as other medical services, meaning your coverage can help make treatment affordable. The variety of payment methods accepted demonstrates the facility's commitment to serving all members of the Wilkesboro community regardless of financial circumstances.
