Focus

This center treats substance use disorders and co-occurring mental health conditions. Your treatment plan addresses each condition at once with personalized, compassionate care for comprehensive healing.

Catholic Charities of Utica/Rome operates a 48-bed apartment program that supports independent living and halfway houses that provide transitional housing for women leaving inpatient care. Residents typically stay for six months in a structured, drug- and alcohol-free setting designed to support independent living and sustained recovery. The program uses a mutual help model, which emphasizes peer support and resident participation in daily routines. Each individual follows a personalized service plan and receives intensive outpatient treatment at local partner centers. Transportation to and from these treatment sites is provided. The program’s goal is to help participants restore health, build independence, and develop productive lifestyles. During their stay, residents actively engage in their treatment plans and are encouraged to attend community-based recovery groups such as alcoholics anonymous (AA), narcotics anonymous (NA), and secular organizations for sobriety (SOS). These groups help build peer support networks essential to long-term recovery. Admission is voluntary, and no one is denied services based on their ability to pay.
