Description
MARCO Services, Inc. is a non-profit 501(c)3 community based residential treatment facility for those with substance use disorders. Founded in 1977 and named Manitowoc Alcoholics Recovering in the County, MARCO Services, Inc. began with eight beds dedicated to Manitowoc County male residents. In 1986, MARCO became licensed to facilitate 12 beds and welcomed females into the program. Since then, MARCO has purchased two additional homes in the area that are utilized for transitional sober living. This year marks 40 years of operation at their current location!
The mission of the organization is to provide residents with intervention and support to effect positive changes in themselves. The programming allows physically, emotionally, spiritually and socially in order to develop and maintain more productive, substance free lifestyles. Staff provides life skills and relapse prevention training as well as individual counseling and recreational activities. The average stay is approximately 90 days, with increasing community involvement during that time.
The facility operates under Executive Director, Gina Wotruba. Ms. Wotruba has been with the organization since September 2011 and serving as Executive Director since February 2017. Support staff consists of one full-time Substance Use Disorder Counselor, a part-time Dietary Manager and Resident Monitors.
