Starting Point Outpatient Inc

Where Recovery Starts

About image
Starting Point Outpatient Inc was founded in January 2015 in order to work with adult SUD on the idea that anyone seeking recovery success should be given the opportunity without barriers or burdens related to cost. Here nobody is turned away for those reasons. Clients who attend services with us receive understanding and encouragement to be the best they they can be and are provided education,  employment services and training, Peer support recovery and counseling services so they can be and stay successful. We offer alumni services for those who struggle periodically which allows them to attend groups or visit with the team. We offer Friday fun night at 1402 Main in Joplin from 8-11pm at the ROCC to encourage healthy activities and also provide no cost meals during these events. Our goal is to allow each individual to gain new living skills to enhance their life, as well as, tools to continue beyond treatment with a successful ongoing recovery. We added adolescent and family services in December of 2019 and are a fully operational 501c3 nonprofit organization. We are also fully certified through the Missouri Department of Mental and Behavioral Health and Federal US Courts.
