For Courts, Judges, and Court Programs

Tuscawilla Place regularly accepts placements from Marion County courts, DUI programs, drug courts, and probation officers. When a judge or court program places a client here, here is what they are placing them into:

  • A 100 percent sober campus with zero tolerance enforced by random drug and alcohol testing
  • A full-time manager who lives on the property and monitors the environment around the clock
  • Required participation in AA or equivalent peer recovery meetings, with 18 on-site meetings per week
  • Clear house rules communicated to every resident at move-in, including curfew, chores, and shared responsibilities
  • A structured daily environment that provides the accountability framework courts look for in a sober living placement

Random testing results are available to supervising officers and probation departments as required by the terms of the court referral. Contact us to discuss documentation requirements for your specific program.

Grant-Funded Placements

Some treatment centers have grant programs that can fund the cost of sober living for clients transitioning out of their program. Tuscawilla Place accepts clients under these grant arrangements.

How it works:

  • The grant is a client-side funding arrangement coordinated through the referring treatment center
  • Eligible clients must have completed the required accountability steps during their treatment program
  • The treatment center coordinates the financial arrangement directly with Tuscawilla Place before the client moves in
  • Tuscawilla Place can be invoiced by the treatment center for the covered period under these arrangements

If your center has a grant program and you want to discuss placing a client under that arrangement, call (352) 622-6023. We will work through the details with you directly.
