Gemeinschaft Home – Connection Points

About Gemeinschaft Home – Connection Points – Harrisonburg, Virginia

Based in Harrisonburg, Virginia, Gemeinschaft Home is a nonprofit Halfway House that specializes in both residential and non-residential mental health and addiction treatment programs. This location houses their administrative office, as well as their men’s home. Here, they support men who have recently left prison or are under court supervision. This particular address is the home of their administrative offices and men’s home.

Gemeinschaft means “community” in German and that’s something this facility really champions through its services. Their name neatly encapsulates the organization’s mission and goals as a community that dedicates itself to the values of shared responsibility, mutual respect and mentorship.

The men’s home can be found just outside Harrisonburg’s city limits, in a cozy renovated farmhouse nestled within the rural countryside. You can enjoy the mountain landscapes of the Shenandoah Valley and engage in nature therapy when you’re not in treatment. This peaceful environment offers residents the opportunity to calmly commit themselves to recovery and healing. Here, individuals can benefit from a healthy model for daily living, safe and comfortable shelter and nutritious food alongside regular counseling sessions and job coaching.

Designed as a transitional haven for non-violent, non-sexual ex-offenders, this 49-bed facility offers full-time room and board for a minimum of 90 days. Residents can expect case management services and cognitive behavioral therapy (CBT) group sessions along with community service obligations.

Most residents arrive with little to no money so they go to great lengths to ensure they have the resources and support they need for an eventual transition back to independent living at the end of their stay. However, residents are also encouraged to seek and maintain work while living here while maintaining sobriety and doing their bit to help out with house chores and maintenance tasks.
