Freedom House provides long term residential treatment solutions for men with chronic problems in a non-institutional atmosphere. Our home-like settings often act as triggers to memories of better times for our residents, long before the values of Faith, Hope, Trust, and Freedom were overtaken by the decimation of substance use disorders. Freedom House also provides transitional living programs and outpatient services for both men and women.Freedom House is a very structured, abstinence based treatment program. The demand for our services is high, and we are concerned for these men, especially in light of the current opioid epidemic and the increasing rate of overdose deaths. In addition, many referrals have a history of relapse and may continue to revolve in the short-term care system without getting the needed services and supports for lasting recovery.

Qualifying for assistance from New Jersey's program usually depends on the severity of your condition and financial circumstance. Read our full guide to New Jersey's program.
A community counseling agency is a group therapy practice that offers affordable mental health services. Most are independent non-profit agencies, state agencies, or publicly-funded agencies. A few may restrict who is eligible for services, so it is a good idea to check when you call.
Community counseling agencies are generally more affordable than other therapy providers, but how much more affordable they are will depend on whether you qualify for a discount or sliding scale fee (or if they accept your insurance). Many, but not all, have a policy that they won't turn away anyone due to inability to pay. You should ask about their fees when you first call.
Expect to talk to kind people who want to help you find the care you need. Most community agencies strive to connect you with a live person within 24 hours, if not immediately. If you're asked to hold or leave a message, don't give up; just leave a message and wait. You should hear back pretty quickly.
Most agencies try to set up an initial assessment appointment within a week (some do within 24 hours), though the waitlist to start therapy is usually longer—about a few weeks on average. If you're not eligible or if the agency is not right for you, it's usually still worth it to call or drop in, because staff are knowledgeable about local options and can often refer you to one.
