About
Riverside House is an alcohol and drug addiction treatment facility that is located at 968 NW 2nd Street in Miami, Florida. Treating substance abuse involves multiple stages of treatment through a recovery program such as that offered by Riverside House. This can include group counseling, individual counseling, outpatient treatment, inpatient treatment, and medically assisted detox, among many others. Treatment programs are based on the individual themselves and are constructed to suit each patient individually. Just as every person is unique, so should treatment programs and that is exactly what patients will receive at Riverside House.
If addicts do not obtain the right type of support and guidance, they may find treatment to be very difficult as the thought of sobriety can seem so far-fetched. At Riverside House, professional counseling and guidance are provided to all patients aged 18+, giving them the strength needed in order to obtain a life that is free of drug and alcohol addiction. By altering the patient's outlook on life through addiction treatment, they will be able to stay positive throughout the duration of rehab.
The staff members at Riverside House have a mission and that is to give patients effective and quality addiction treatment so that long-lasting sobriety can be obtained. The path to a positive future starts on a positive foot and that begins at Riverside House. Confronting addiction is a difficult thing to do, but it is the most important step in the recovery process. Through professional counseling during the patient's time in treatment, patients will learn coping skills and trigger management which is imperative to the success of maintaining sobriety.
Maintaining sobriety on one's own is extremely difficult, especially when the addict has tried to go 'cold turkey' on their own. This is because it requires medically-assisted detox in order to properly and safely wean the body off of the substance of abuse. This way the body does not go through sudden withdrawal nor experience harsh side effects. Riverside House can provide patients with all of the necessary tools, treatments, and resources so that patients have every opportunity to succeed in recovery.
Getting treatment is the best option when seeking a life that is free of substance abuse. Get the help required now and start living the best life possible. Contact Riverside House by visiting www.riversidehouse.org now.

"My" story goes all the way back to the early beginnings of RH. Way back to the summer of 1979! You see I didn't have a drug or alcohol problem. I had a ''sin" problem, a big one!! I was the ripe old age of 22 and just finished doing 18 months of a 3 year sentence at a rehabilitation center in Hollywood, Fl. I had only 18 months of probation left to do on a 3 year sentence. 1 1/2 in & 1 1/2 out. I had a violent problem I inhareted from my late father who grew up on the streets of the Bronx, New York. After my probation officer dropped me off in Little Havanna, with only $5 bucks in my pocket and a suitcase, I found myself wandering the streets looking for an address someone give me where I might find some work. The address was 968 N.W. 2nd st. I had absolutely no idea where it was since I was from the S.W. Kendall area. So I ended up walking all the way from Riverside Dr. & 2nd st. to the harbor & back! So this part of town was completely foreign to me. After going up and down the streets I was so hot and tired that I sat down for a nap in what used to be a tennis park that just happened to be directly across from RH! But I had no idea of this. It was a hot, late August afternoon, but by now a light rain was beginning to fall. So here I was, hot, tierd and lost. So I started to pray to God, "please" help me. But I was so tired that I laid back on my suitcase for a nap. And just as I was falling asleep, I heard a voice inside of me say "look up, your redemption draws near!" Just as I sat up I heard someone calling out my old nickname. "Starsky, Starsky, is that you Starsky?" As I looked, I saw two men who were in the rehab/detention center in Hollywood, ( FL ) with me! Well, to make a long Story short, the asst. director was a Jewish christian who ended up witnessing to me, since I'm Jewish, out of Isaiah 53, and then gave me his big bible to read the crucifixion story as I walked to the church's kitchen for a dinner and then came back to talk to him. His name was Burt Rosen. Well, to make a long story even longer, he gave me a bed, then a room for $50. a month. Five months later I got a job miraculously at Victoria Hospital which paid for the room on New Year's day, 1980! But on the night of August 27th 1979 I prayed to the only way to God. He showed me Jesus on a cross in the darkness of that small room that night. And the next morning I new that I was a new creation in Yeshua Ha Meshiach!! Jesus the Messiah. Praise His holy name!! May the Lord continue to bless this ministry for another 35 years!!! In Christ's holly love, Your brother, Mr.Alan Masarsky
