About New York Center for Living

The New York Center for Living is dedicated to one purpose; helping young people and their families work through the web of problems caused by the use and abuse of addictive substances, both legal and illegal. New York Center for Living integrates conventional and complementary therapeutic services to provide a holistic, individualized environment where healing can begin.

At the New York Center for Living, they understand substance use touches more than one area of an addict’s life. It affects the whole person physically, mentally, emotionally and spiritually, and their treatment philosophy addresses all the areas of these life areas, including family, mental health, school, nutrition, and the social environment. They support the use of an innovative 12-step philosophy to help our members and their families become healthy and productive again.
