The Substance Abuse Counseling Center provides education, outreach services, and counseling for personnel aboard the Marine Corps Recruit Depot, San Diego. Our services are dedicated to awareness; prevention and providing direct care for those in need. Eligible personnel are active duty and/or their families, retirees and their families, and civilian government employees. Our services are provided in a confidential setting and referrals can be made upon request. Our goal is to provide the best quality care in the most efficient manner. If you need help or know someone who does, please feel free to contact us.
SERVICES AVAILABLE Each client is provided with an assessment, diagnosis if warranted, and a treatment plan. This is completed through the initial screening and interview. All clients have referred to services accordingly. Individual treatment will vary. Outpatient treatment may include education/skill training, therapy groups, and 12 step support meetings. Referral to residential treatment may be necessary depending on the severity of the illness.
Following a successful course of treatment aftercare group participation may be appropriate. This component provides the client with a more stable foundation for continued abstinence should that be the need. Treatment plans are individually set. Drug prevention services are provided to all active-duty military, retirees, and civilians working aboard the Depot and their dependents.
Pro-active drug prevention services are disseminated through group presentations, workshops, and briefings to all commands located at MCRD San Diego and the surrounding communities. All classes are subject to change. Please contact us for updates.
PRIME FOR LIFE PRIME For Life is a course put into effect USMC-wide to take the place of IMPACT and is taught in a 16-hour format. It is designed to challenge common beliefs and attitudes that directly contribute to high-risk alcohol and drug use. The program goals are to reduce the risk for health problems and impairment problems. PRIME For Life is the prevention of any type of alcohol or drug problem. This includes prevention of health problems such as alcoholism, or impairment problems such as car crashes or fights. Emphasis is on knowing and understanding risks one cannot change and reducing risks one can change. Participants use workbooks throughout the course to complete a number of individual and group activities. Material is presented using a DVD platform with animation, full-motion video clips, and audio clips to enhance the learning experience.
