The primary role of a therapeutic community is to help former addicts learn to live without drugs. Therapeutic communities provide a supportive environment where individuals can work on various aspects of their recovery, learn coping strategies, develop life skills, and build a sense of community with others who share similar experiences. While they may offer services related to detoxification and identification of drug abusers, their main focus is on long-term recovery and rehabilitation.
