Chronic Relapse Addiction Treatment Programs

A chronic relapse addiction treatment program addresses relapse prevention strategies and areas of concern related to chronic relapse.

The National Institute on Drug Abuse (NIDA) defines addiction as a chronic, relapsing disorder that is a lot like other diseases (e.g., heart disease) in that they are preventable and treatable.1

An addiction treatment program that offers specialized support and guidance for those suffering from chronic relapse can offer greater long-term recovery success. Relapse is not a failure, rather a common step in recovery for individuals battling substance use disorder.
