Skilled Labor Professionals (SLP) Program
The Skilled Labor Program at Silver Linings Recovery Center is designed for employed persons who have been struggling through the trials of substance abuse disorder. SLP focuses on seeking a balance between work, life, family and the recovery process. Specifically, the employed person would not take a leave of absence from their company, but schedule recovery around their job or vice versa depending on the type of employment. Silver Linings Recovery Center in Langhorne, PA & East Windsor, NJ allows individuals to stay employed, work and participate in the treatment process in conjunction with the SLP and EAP programs. Clients can receive a variety of treatment options while maintaining daily responsibilities.

EAP & Peer Advocacy Support
Our Skilled Labor Professionals Program is an extension of our Employee Assistance Program (EAP). The primary goal in EAP is to help an employee overcome addiction using a treatment center instead of just firing them. Furthermore, the program teaches many skills that allow clients to keep their job and become a valuable member in the workforce. Through SLP patients in a rehabilitation center can keep their current job using outpatient treatment as their preferred method to overcome substance abuse. Our outpatient treatment program allows clients to receive treatment at home or a sober-living environment while maintaining daily responsibilities. With informed consent from clients our staff and counselors work collaboratively with EAP and HR departments to coordinate patient’s ability to work.
