About Georgia Pines Substance Abuse Services

Georgia Pines Substance Abuse Services in Pelham, Georgia, is part of Georgia Pines Community Service Board, a state-supported public safety-net provider for addiction, mental health, and developmental disability care across Colquitt, Decatur, Grady, Mitchell, Thomas, and Seminole counties. They work in partnership with Georgia’s Department of Behavioral Health and Developmental Disabilities and emphasize early intervention and community-based treatment. Their Open Access model means no appointment or referral is needed: people can walk into the Pelham clinic or another location for a behavioral health assessment, see a psychiatrist, and be connected to services. Their addiction care spans inpatient detox, short-term residential treatment, transitional housing, intensive outpatient treatment, and longer-term recovery housing.

Detox happens at their 24/7 Behavioral Health Crisis Center in Thomasville, which evaluates adults with substance use and mental health needs and runs a 24-bed crisis stabilization unit. From there, people may move into the Phoenix, a 50-bed, 30-day intensive residential program for those who can’t stay sober on their own or lack stable housing, staffed by physicians, nurses, licensed social workers, certified addiction counselors, and case managers. Robert’s Place offers 30 days of semi-independent apartment living for ten residents, who attend the Lighthouse intensive outpatient program while working toward housing, medical care, and employment. Hilltop Lodge in Baconton is a six-month recovery residence for 16 people that requires full-time work and three 12-step or self-help meetings each week, with the aim of leaving residents with stable housing and a job; payment assistance is available to eligible Georgia residents.
