Specialized Care for Older Adults
What strikes me the most is their senior program. Adults aged 55 and older in North Central Connecticut can receive outreach, assessments, case management, education and treatment referrals. You can access ongoing support for isolation, addiction and mental health conditions.
Targeted LGBTQ+ Services
I also think their Walk With Me program looks fantastic. This specialized outpatient program provides tailored care for members of the LGBTQ+ community of all ages. You can access therapeutic services and peer support in a safe, welcoming space to meet your unique needs.
Reentry Programs
Another great feature I noticed was their reentry programs. They provide unwavering support and guidance to help you get back on your feet after incarceration.
Levels of Care

Inpatient
Inpatient and residential programs provide round-the-clock medical and emotional support as you live at the treatment facility. This level of care may be recommended if you have severe addictions or mental health conditions since it removes outside distractions and allows you to focus solely on therapy.
-
Outpatient
In outpatient therapy, you’ll attend therapy sessions several times each week while living at home. This is ideal if you have a strong support system and a lower risk of relapse. Outpatient treatment offers flexibility to maintain work, school or family obligations.
