Visiting

Clients may have visitors on Saturdays. Visitors are required to participate in family therapy and group meetings.

Phone Use

Clients are allowed to use their personal cell phones during specified hours, Monday to Friday, from 7:30 am to 6:00 pm.
During detox, clients are not granted any cell phone privileges. When clients transfer or enter directly to residential treatment, there is a 3-day blackout period before they can use their phones on day 4.
Cell phones cannot be taken off site and must be surrendered if a client is on a lay-in.

Cell phone schedule at the Lighthouse:

7:30 am: Clients may check out their phones.
8:25 am: Phones are checked in until after morning groups.
12:00 pm: Phones can be checked out.
12:55 pm: Check-in until afternoon groups conclude.
4:30 pm: Phones are checked out.
5:55 pm: Phones must be checked in for the day.

It’s important to follow these times because late turn-ins mean phones won’t be released until the next scheduled time. This structure is designed to teach time management and prioritize programming over cell phone use.
