About Serenity Foundation of Texas Serenity House Detox Unit
Serenity Foundation of Texas Serenity House Detox Unit is a CARF-accredited substance use treatment facility located at 1546 North 2nd Street in Abilene, Texas. The center operates around the clock every day of the week, making it accessible to individuals and families facing urgent withdrawal crises who need a medically supervised detox program in the West Texas region. Its accreditation from CARF signals that its programs have been independently reviewed against rigorous quality standards.
The facility provides a continuum of care that begins with medical detox — the clinical foundation for safe withdrawal management — and extends through residential treatment, a standard outpatient program, and an intensive outpatient program (IOP). That full range means patients can step down through progressively less intensive levels of care without transferring to an entirely different provider, a logistical advantage that can support continuity during a vulnerable period.
Serenity House Detox Unit incorporates Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) into its treatment framework and addresses co-occurring Trauma and PTSD alongside substance use disorders. This dual focus acknowledges the clinical reality that trauma and addiction frequently intersect, and the program is structured to treat both within the same setting.
The center serves men, women, and court-ordered individuals, broadening its reach across multiple populations in the Abilene area. Payment options include Medicaid, TRICARE, private insurance, state insurance, self-pay, sliding-scale fees, and financial assistance — and the facility explicitly encourages people not to let insurance status stand in the way of seeking care. For those completing treatment, aftercare support through Sober Living at The Legacy offers a structured transition after discharge.
