We offer trauma therapy, anger management, step intensives and relapse prevention tracks in addition to group therapy and spiritual counseling in addition to the education on the disease of drug addiction and alcoholism. Our program is designed to treat cross addictions such as alcohol dependency, drug addiction, gambling, eating disorders, and sex addictions. Moreover, our integrated multidisciplinary treatment can effectively address dual diagnosis personality disorders like the common bi-polar patient and more complex mental health concerns which may be underlying chemical dependency. The issues can have a great impact on alcohol and drug addiction treatment and can clear the path for effective drug and alcohol rehab protocols.

It will be essential for clients to challenge their self-defeating behaviours and barriers that have kept them from recovery. This will lead to the ability to maintain a healthy lifestyle based on alternatives to drug abuse and/or use. Clients will receive assistance in developing an individual recovery plan that will increase their self-esteem and reinforce positive changes as well as internalize their self-reponsibility. The House for Acceptance prides itself in providing daily support to its clients through counselors, house managers and other clients.

The agency now known as Quest Recovery and Prevention Services has been helping people recover from alcohol and drug addiction since 1969. It was a time when alcoholism was just being recognized as a disease by the federal government and many professional medical associations. Alcohol abuse and drug abuse were considered two separate problems at the time. For this reason, Quest started as two separate agencies, one serving people with alcohol problems, the other serving people with drug problems.
The two agencies combined in 1983 under the name of Alcohol and Drug Addiction Services (ADA), offering men�s residential treatment, outpatient treatment and methadone maintenance. In 1989, the agency changed its name to Quest Recovery Services. In 2004 , we added Prevention Services to our name to reflect our extensive prevention programming work with schools and the community. Today we are known as Quest Recovery and Prevention Services.

At First Step Recovery Fargo, we believe these are treatable illnesses, and we base our recovery program on this guiding principle:
Alcoholism and other drug dependencies are physical, emotional, social, and spiritual disorders. They are characterized by excessive, compulsive, and uncontrolled use of alcohol and other drugs that affect not only the person who is dependent but also family members and significant others.
