Since 1973, Harbor House has been a leader in providing a continuum of high quality, affordable and effective community-based addiction treatment services for adult men and women and their families. We are licensed by the State Department of Mental Health to operate two facilities with a total of 77 beds (32 for women and 45 for men).

Our programs and services are designed around Twelve Step addiction recovery fellowships such as Alcoholics Anonymous and Narcotics Anonymous and take place in a highly structured residential environment. The daily regimen focuses on the unique physical, emotional, mental and spiritual needs of each client to arrest the disease of addiction and restore responsible behavior. The goal is to rehabilitate each individual so that they are able to return to the community sober and productive. We treat each client with dignity and respect and believe that clients need to participate actively in their treatment and rehabilitation.

Daily activities for the Primary program (about 42 days) include completing assigned chores, participating in individual and group counseling, attending lectures on addiction and recovery and Twelve Step meetings and practicing sober living and socialization skills. As clients advance from Primary to Secondary (30 to 60 days) and Extended (up to one year) residential treatment, the program offers budgeting/banking, cooking/shopping and time management skills. Clients in the Second and Extended phases are required to obtain employment within the first 30 days of admission to these programs.
