Charles Street Residence
Our supervised halfway house serves those with substance use disorders. The residence serves as a support for those transitioning toward independent, community-based living from higher levels of care.
The Charles Street Residence, with a capacity of 14, is certified by the New York State Office of Addiction Services and Supports (OASAS).
Participation
Residents work closely with a Residential Advisor who will assist them toward independent living. A treatment plan is created to assist residents with achieving individually-determined goals.
Length of Stay
Length of stay is determined on an individual basis and, although this varies, a typical stay is 6-12 months.
Program Expectations
Residents engage and participate in treatment planning, outpatient treatment for substance use and, when appropriate, mental health treatment. Residents are expected to abstain from alcohol, tobacco, and other drugs not prescribed to them by their health care practitioner. Residents must be willing and able to live in a group setting and are expected to be courteous and respectful of one another.
