The Minnesota Model
The Minnesota Model is a framework for addiction treatment developed at the University of Minnesota. It emphasizes a comprehensive, holistic approach, integrating medical, psychological, and spiritual care. The model typically includes a structured program of individual and group therapy, often involving 12-step recovery principles. Personalized treatment plans are designed to address the unique needs of each patient. This model is known for its focus on long-term recovery, community support, and the importance of maintaining sobriety through ongoing engagement in therapy and support groups. It is widely used in substance abuse treatment facilities across the United States.
