Habilitat is located on a 1.5-acre estate at the base of the Ko`olau Mountains, on the island of O`ahu. The tranquil views and cool tradewinds from Kane`ohe Bay create an ideal atmosphere for recovery
Education
Our experience has shown that those involved with alcohol or drug abuse have seriously interrupted or completely disregarded their formal education. All residents are encouraged to complete their high school education while in the program. Our teaching staff is made up of state-certified educators with special talents. The student-teacher ratio is small enough to assure individualized attention. Habilitat also encourages senior residents to pursue higher education – either during the latter phases of the program or after completion. Many graduates have pursued college degrees.
Health Services and Physical Fitness
From pre-admission through completion, Habilitat works to protect the health of the individual as well as that of the collective population. Through the services of a network of medical professionals, we develop a complete medical history for each resident. Health services personnel monitor special medical needs and work with the food service department and our dietitian to ensure the best possible level of health for everyone. Nutritional counseling for weight management, cholesterol control, and other health problems ensure that meals are carefully planned and portioned to provide a balanced and appetizing diet.
Habilitat also recognizes the importance of exercise in the development of a healthy lifestyle. That is why we have an extensive physical fitness program, which consists of a fully equipped gym, with jacuzzi and steam room, as well as a state-of-the-art aerobics studio. Residents may choose from running or walking clubs, high-impact aerobics, step aerobics, or kickboxing based fitness programs.
