Residential & Supported Housing Services

Intensive Residential Services

Intensive residential mental health and/or substance abuse treatment is available for adults needing 24-hour supervision and support. The primary goal of Residential Services is to provide the optimal level of support and supervision to assist clients in reaching their goals pertaining to living, learning and working in the community as independently as possible.

NRICS operates two group homes and three 24/7 supervised apartment buildings located throughout the northern Rhode Island area. We also operate Wilson House, a residential substance abuse treatment facility in Pawtucket. All of these facilities provide integrated mental health and substance abuse treatment services for residents with co-occurring disorders. These residences are staffed 24 hours a day, seven days a week by psychiatrists, nurses, licensed and masters level clinicians, clinical case managers and treatment aides.
