Straight & Narrow

Straight & Narrow – Men’s Treatment program is in Paterson, New Jersey. It’s part of the Catholic Charities Diocese of Paterson. They have a short term or long term drug rehab option. You’ll also have medication assisted treatment (MAT) and aftercare programs. There’s a separate program for women. The staff speaks English and Spanish.

The short term stay is pretty intense in terms of treatment. You’ll be medically monitored by a case management team. Along with therapy and medications, you’ll get the chance to develop living skills to avoid a relapse

The long term program is for clients who need a much longer support program. Both programs offer individual and group counseling, family education, and health education classes. The center is accredited by CARF, so you know they meet a professional standard level of care.

A big part of the program is faith-based healing. This is more than just prayers and devotionals. You’ll get a chance to join their choir and perform for the community. In addition to the choir, the diocese has sober living facilities and other social services that can make your recovery stronger.
