Project RESET
A Transparent Recovery Infrastructure for Cities
Six-month recovery program moving adults from addiction instability to stable housing and employment, every dollar and outcome publicly tracked.
Target Outcome: 60% of participants achieve stable housing & employment in 6 months
Program includes housing, food, therapy, detox if needed, case management, and employment support.
The Problem
Cities spend billions addressing addiction and homelessness through fragmented systems that rarely produce long-term stability.
Emergency Rooms
$20k-$50k+
Short-Term Detox
$10k-$40k+
Shelters
$10k-$25k+
Incarceration
$20k+
These systems respond to crises but rarely produce lasting recovery. Most participants entering our program are unhoused and unemployed.
The Economic Case
Project RESET converts reactive spending into measurable recovery outcomes at lower total cost than current fragmented systems.
Cost Comparison Per Person / Year
Up to 70% less per participant with structured outcomes
Typical Crisis Response Costs
- Emergency medical care$20k, $50k+
- Short-term rehab / detox$10k, $40k+
- Shelter & temporary housing$10k, $25k+
- Policing & incarceration$20k+
- Repeated treatment attempts
Cities often spend tens of thousands of dollars per person each year with limited long-term stability.
Project RESET Approach

- Housing stabilization support
- Addiction therapy & detox if needed
- Case management & support staff
- Employment training & placement
- Outcome measurement & public reporting
Program cost: $38,000 per participant, delivering long-term stability at lower total cost per person.

Recovery
Therapy, detox if needed, housing stabilization, and ongoing case management to build a foundation for lasting change.
Employment
