Established in the Quakertown community since 1983, New Vitae Wellness and Recovery offers a range of person-centered
outpatient and residential services for adults, young adults, and veterans with mental health, addiction, co-occurring, or traumatic brain injury concerns. They offer multiple
residential treatment options to meet varying needs of assistance. Their Quakertown House offers a safe and structured living environment with 24-hour staffing. They provide 3 meals and snacks daily with many opportunities for socialization. The home has space for up to 65 residents.
The residential treatment facilities through New Vitae help individuals navigate returning to community living using a blend of clinical and social interventions. At Quakertown House, staff provide local transportation to appointments and offer tailored options for vocational assistance, spirituality supports, and social activities. They offer frequent trips into the community for residents to attend local 12-Step support groups, visit shopping centers, and more.
New Vitae's young adults program addresses all the aspects of young adults' behavioral health needs including mental health care, employment assistance, life skills development, social opportunities, and education. At a crucial time of transition into adulthood, New Vitae offers the necessary support to prepare individuals for lifelong well-being.
The center's program for veterans is set apart by their ability to employ veterans who can offer truly personalized and expert care for other veterans. The program grew from a need of greater supports in the community for veterans experiencing homelessness and now offers a range of services like treatment for traumatic brain injuries, deep transcranial magnetic stimulation, GeneSight testing, and more.
