About New Life Manor Community Res – Newburgh
The New Life Manor is a halfway house that specializes in substance use disorders. They are part of the Regional Economic Community Action Program which is located in Newburgh, New York. I like that they will help develop your own treatment which will help you learn all the benefits of sobriety and also help you identify your triggers that can lead to relapse.
Three main criteria must be met in order for you to be admitted into the house. You must have proof that you have been clean for 30 days. You must be referred by either the criminal justice system, hospital or another licensed OASES provider. You must make sure that your referral has your psychological history, medical records, your course of treatment and contact information.
What I like about them is that they are a smoke free facility and they have 24 hour staffing. There is a resident manager on site. They are able to house up to 24 people but the bedrooms are shared. They may have up to 3 people per room but everyone has their own locker space. The house has a dining room and common areas. I do like that they have ping pong tables on site.
If you have any cravings or withdrawal symptoms, they are able to provide medication assisted treatment with Suboxone, Vivitrol or naltrexone. I also like that they are able to provide you with transportation if you need to attend a self help community meeting. The counselors provide individual counseling and lead the group therapy sessions.
They are also able to provide medication management and case management services. If you are referred through the criminal justice system and need to complete community service hours, they do have opportunities for that via volunteer work.
