High Watch Recovery Center

About High Watch Recovery Center

High Watch was established in 1939 in Kent, Connecticut, as the world's first 12-Step treatment center. Since then, we've led thousands of adolescents, adults and families from the grip of alcohol and drug addiction to the freedom of recovery. High Watch is a non-profit dedicated to healing those suffering from the chronic illness of drug and alcohol addiction. Each resident receives state-of-the-art, customized medical care while learning the lessons on how to stay sober through the spiritual teachings and practice of the 12 Step principles of Alcoholics Anonymous. High Watch has achieved the Gold Seal of Approval, which means we provide patient safety and emphasis on quality of care.
