Nestled on 13 serene acres just south of Indianapolis, Tara Treatment Center in Franklin, Indiana, has been a sanctuary for individuals battling alcohol and drug addiction since 1985. Founded by Ann Daugherty, whose personal experience with her brother’s struggle inspired her mission, the center offers a holistic approach to recovery, addressing physical, emotional, mental, and spiritual well-being.
Tara Treatment Center provides a comprehensive continuum of care tailored to meet diverse recovery needs. The journey often begins with detoxification, where individuals are closely monitored 24/7 by licensed medical staff to ensure safe withdrawal. Following detox, the residential program offers 24-hour support in gender-specific facilities, blending therapy, education, and 12-step support over a typical span of 30 to 42 days. For those requiring extended care, the transitional residential program offers continued support and stabilization post-residential treatment. Additionally, outpatient services, including Intensive Outpatient Programs (IOP), aftercare, and educational sessions, are available to support ongoing recovery efforts.
The center’s commitment to individualized care is evident in its diverse therapeutic offerings. By integrating 12-step principles with evidence-based therapies and psycho-educational components, clients embark on a journey toward holistic wellness. Family involvement is also a cornerstone of Tara’s approach, recognizing the vital role loved ones play in the recovery process.
Leadership at Tara Treatment Center reflects a deep-rooted dedication to its mission. Jessica Daugherty, who began her tenure in 2002 and has served in various capacities, now leads as the Chief Executive Officer. Under her guidance, the center upholds its core values of honesty, hard work, trust, and commitment, fostering a supportive environment for both clients and staff.
With nearly four decades of service, Tara Treatment Center has positively impacted over 20,000 individuals, offering a refuge where those struggling with addiction can discover a new way of life.
