TREATMENT SERVICE
THE SERVICE
BushMob is an Aboriginal community-controlled youth service in Alice Springs, founded in 1999, running a voluntary 16-week residential program for young people wanting to change their drug, alcohol or inhalant use. Residents live in a staffed house with meals provided, are assigned a case manager, and take part in group-based days of bush adventure therapy, horse culture and healing, camping, art, music, sport, cultural activities and alcohol and drug education, with help to return to school or work. Post-exit support follows.
Ask the admissions team how withdrawal would be handled and how a transfer into treatment works.
CARE & DAILY LIFE
Ask about staff qualifications, medication policy, accessibility and any specific support needs before you decide. Almost no service in this directory publishes what it will and will not admit.
COST
We hold what this service publishes, and we do not put a price at the top of a profile for the public to sort on. The cheapest service on a page is rarely the right one for a particular person, and a quote that comes with the conversation about what is included is worth more than a band. Professional referrers see the figures in their workspace.
Not published. Ask before you assume any route is available to you.
AFTER THE STAY
Details of ongoing support are not published here. Ask the service what support is available when your treatment ends.
PROFESSIONAL ENDORSEMENTS
Endorsements come from registered professionals — psychologists, addiction GPs, lawyers, social workers — who have referred someone here and put their name to what happened. None yet does not mean poor ones: it means nobody has written one.
