Questions before or after
you enroll.

Foundations for Change is for people who want to stop drinking or using drugs, including those who have recently stopped and want practical structure for what comes next. The course helps you work on habits, communication, boundaries, and goals. You do not need to have everything figured out. You do need to be willing to reflect honestly and practice what you learn.

No. Foundations for Change is an educational course on habits, self-talk, communication, boundaries, and goals. It does not provide detox, medical care, or addiction treatment. It can be used alongside professional care and other recovery support.

Pay in full includes the Stay the Course Gift Box. The branded box contains a beautifully printed workbook, a leather-backed journal featuring the STCI logo, a copy of Wisdom at a Cost, a 20-ounce STCI tumbler, and some STCI swag. Shipping is included.
