About ADAPT Foundation Brazos Place
ADAPT Foundation’s Brazos Place is a CARF-accredited, gender-specific addiction treatment program serving the Houston and Brazosport / Gulf Coast region of Texas. The men’s facility is located at 1103 N Avenue H in Freeport, with a sister women’s facility in nearby Clute, allowing the organization to deliver true gender-specific residential care for adults age 18 and older.
Brazos Place runs an unusually broad continuum for a single Texas program: medical detox (3 to 5 days), residential treatment, outpatient services, sober living, and structured aftercare are all delivered under one organization. The clinical model is anchored in a strengths-based recovery framework, which centers each client’s capacity for change rather than the deficits behind their addiction. Gender-specific groups and integrated dual-diagnosis care address the distinct clinical needs of men and women in early recovery, including co-occurring mood disorders and other mental health conditions.
Leadership is provided by CEO Joe Gardzina (LCDC, ADC-III, SAP, NCAC), who has worked in addiction and behavioral health since 1993; Director of Programs Katie Waller (LCDC, M.A.), who joined ADAPT in 2017; and Facility Director Channtal Flores (LCDC). Admission criteria are straightforward: clients must be adults 18 or older, medically stable, screened by staff, and motivated for treatment, with a clinical diagnosis of drug or alcohol addiction.
Brazos Place accepts United, Optum, and Medicaid coverage, broadening access for Texans who might otherwise face cost barriers to private residential care. The program holds CARF accreditation. Admissions can be reached at (855) 862-3278 or directly at the Freeport facility at (979) 233-3826.
