About Crossroads Inc – New Haven
Crossroads Inc. is located in New Haven, Connecticut. This was a residential treatment facility that supported adults in recovery from a drug, alcohol, or substance use disorder. Services were offered in a residential setting. They also had a jail diversion program as well here, which gave clients a safe environment to live in while they learned the skills to integrate back into society. Currently, this location is temporarily closed. Their New Haven location specifically served women in recovery.
You would have had a safe and supportive environment to live as you worked through your addiction struggles. There was staff available around the clock, allowing you to receive services and support even after hours.
Many women who received support here appreciated the easy access to care because staff members would often step in to help you even if you didn’t ask or were hesitant to seek out support.
Women who were involved in the legal system found this program to be especially helpful to them. Relapse prevention skills, addiction education, and counseling helped them take back control over their lives so they could move in a positive direction after their program here.
One of the downsides, however, is that some women who received care here and were not using it as a jail diversion program felt at times like it was difficult to relate to some of their peers in recovery.
Their programs were rooted in evidence based practices that include counseling and therapy support. The residential track utilized the 12 Steps and SMART Recovery Groups. You would have also been supported by peer mentors who could help you work through your struggles by inspiring and motivating you to make meaningful changes in your life as well. They brought their lived experiences to your recovery plan, making you feel like there was someone you could trust and relate to here.
