When addiction spins you out of control, reach for a steady hand.

Harbor House and Chester Ray Residential Treatment

Welcome home

It’s time to surround yourself with others who believe in your recovery. As you step inside one of our residential treatment centers, Harbor House for Women or Chester A. Ray Center for Men, you’ll join a family of people who can relate to where you are. Many are in recovery themselves and know it can work for you. It’s time to free yourself from your past and discover a better life ahead.

When it seems no one understands the struggle to overcome an addiction, you can find sisterhood at Reach’s residential treatment home for women. Harbor House offers full residential substance abuse treatment for women for up to 90 days.

Residents develop healthy coping skills through treatment sessions, lectures, assignments, and scheduled activities. Each resident works toward transitioning back into the community by seeking employment, doing volunteer work, and addressing housing needs. Those who obtain employment and/or volunteer work during their stay may be approved for an abbreviated schedule of required activities. We also offer a mother with infant program with residential treatment.

I reached for belonging

“There’s no place for fear in my life anymore. I feel like I belong somewhere. I don’t feel alone. I see the good in everything. I’m just a whole solid person that can offer a heck of a lot more.”
