This program saved my life. If you are serious about recovering then this program may be the right fit for you. I've been to many treatment programs with little success. This program helped me get to the 'whys' of my addiction, helped me change my behaviours and helped me deal with some deep rooted issues. I have been clean over 2 1/2 years now. Stonehenge staff are knowledgeable, compassionate and patient. I highly recommend this program.

Its a treatment centre thats run by staff that are still in highschool and the inmates on parole don't fancy the normal non convicted addict on a health bed. They discharge people on the last day and very simple solutions are made into complex situations that nobody deals with. Hurry up and wait. Just go to Homewood or Windsor and save your time. I did the program twice and its ridiculous now. They truly sell the place on looks but the addict suffers at the end of the day with the centre's programming and lack of lived experience or any beneficial help.

Sidney House was the most 7noprofessuobal councilors of anyplace I have dealt wit...The Sam team is by far something I would warn people avouth......they are uneducated and uncompassionate.....They are full of drama as well...... removing someone who has some mental health issues but has been clean and respectful 8s quite frankly discussing....

I really tried to make this program work. It felt like i was under suspision and had my room tossed 4 times in 60 days. While house searches occoured all clients had to remain in the basement 5 to 7 hours when we very well could had been isolated outside where it was plus 25 and sunny.The staff were text book trained with zero personal experience with addiction. Staff threatened to have me discharged if my urine samples didnt clear up by a certain time. This only showed me that staff had very little knowledge of drug detection times. Benzos can be detectable for up to 30 days. To threaten to discharge me after 2 weeks isnt being very realistic about detection times. It seemed that staff needed some training on drug detection times.There was an aledged smell of smoke in one of the houses so staff implemented a smoking bans. No smoking after meals and lengthy times between smoke breaks. This added to my struggle dealing with opiate addiction. I wasnt there to smoke less. I was there to quit heroin.Staff were told to walk the property looking for smoking violators so they could be punished with community consequences. None of the staff smoke. Some first hand experience could had been useful in this situation for the smokers Similarily the kind of experience that is needed to have a good understanding about addictions and what they are dealing with. Stonehenge felt like i was in jail but i wasnt so i self discharged after a 60 day stay.I dont have much money. Stonehenge had it in their safe. but rather then refund me all the money i had to my name they insisted they send my money through the mail. Its been 10 days and they still havent sent me my money. Thanks Stonehenge you have been a big help. I continue the fight.

Unfortunately the brilliant, on site staff were compromised by sketchy, full stop social justice warriors in management.Look if you hate men, just work as a co or something... don't take it out on people trying to do they're best.Unless you're mandated to be here... find somewhere else.

My experience:I heard a lot of great things about them and their programs, until they refused my application on sole basis of my mental health disabilities.Now ongoing lawsuit via Ontario Human Rights Tribunal ,they are blaming anyone and everyone else but themselves, intentionally stalling and refusing accountability despite already exposed via factual evidence.Insult to injury I've been struggling with a newly diagnosed illness of post traumatic stress as a contributory result of them prolonging their account stability. I'm forced to relive their torture harassment on a daily basis.Taking advantage of my position of being a grossly disproportionately marginalized population.
