Services at Dismas Home
Our residents often have complex histories of poverty and physical, sexual, or emotional abuse. Many have lacked the foundational support or healthy tools to navigate their chapters of crisis, finding themselves in a substance misuse situation and actively involved in the justice system.
We begin with a 90-day treatment program that’s designed to treat the trauma behind substance misuse, allowing residents to process their experiences, develop new strategies, and get physically and mentally healthy.
Once they are ready, residents then transition to the second program at Dismas Home. In our Transitional Living Program (TLP), they continue to receive group and individual therapy, but are also educated with life skills and heavy case management, aiding in workforce development and housing.
Our family-like environment gives them the time, the space, and the tools they need to get back on their feet, live and work independently, and enjoy a stable life in the community.
