Where Healing Comes Home

New Haven Aftercare

We understand that transitioning from New Haven can be both an exciting and overwhelming experience. We also see treatment as a process and we are committed to helping families beyond their daughter’s stay. That is why New Haven created HomeWorks. Our HomeWorks program was created to prepare families for the challenges of transition and provide individualized support both during and after treatment.

Gathering Calls

During your time at New Haven you will develop long-lasting relationships with different therapists, teachers, and staff. We want you to stay connected to those individuals that have supported you throughout your journey. This is also an opportunity for you to check-in and report on how you are following through on the plans and goals you made while at New Haven.

We hold monthly gathering calls that are open to all alumni students and parents. These calls are a time to connect with other families who have a shared experience, to get support, and celebrate successes.

Alumni Resources

Our transitioning families can also take advantage of various alumni resources. Families have access to regional alumni events throughout the country, annual on-campus and off-campus alumni events, the ability to receive mentoring from past parents, read their transition stories, and receive ongoing communication through our alumni newsletter. We are grateful to the parents of the Alumni Association who volunteer their time and talents to make these resources available to our transitioning families. If you would like to understand these services in more detail please visit our Alumni Resources page.
