About The Shoulder Mobile

The Shoulder is a non-profit Christian center in Mobile, Alabama, that helps women recover from drug and alcohol addiction. They offer a high-intensity residential program with 25 hours of therapy a week and a low-intensity residential program that allows and requires women to work during treatment.
The high-intensity track includes 24/7 access to a registered nurse and resources designed to focus on recovery full time.
The low-intensity track meets outside work hours and includes fun monthly group activities. It operates similarly to a sober or transitional living program.
The Shoulder uses evidence-based treatments like individual and group counseling to help women overcome substance use.
Both the high-intensity and the low-intensity tracks focus on spiritual growth, 12-step recovery, and individualized care while clients continue working. After this program, women can move into transitional living care for similar, continued support and community reintegration.
The center uses a sliding scale for fees. The ability for clients to hold jobs during the program and the sliding fee scale aim to make treatment accessible and help clients adapt to long-term recovery.

Private non-profit organization. Primary focus: substance use treatment, transitional housing, halfway house, or sober home.
