Located in Northeast Ohio, New Directions is a nonprofit that offers outpatient and gender-specific residential treatment for adolescents, young adults, and families facing substance use and co-occurring mental health challenges. Their mission is to provide hope, healing, and healthcare through a full continuum of care—including assessment, crisis support, therapeutic living, and intensive programs guided by ASAM levels of care.

Clients also receive psychiatric assessments, medication management, parent education, and case management. Programs aim to help individuals understand the effects of substance use, build coping skills, and strengthen family and community connections. Stay Focused With Stable Care Residents live in structured, therapeutic homes designed for safety, stability, and healing. The Nancy Hanna House serves female clients in recovery housing with extended care support. Services are tailored to meet each individual’s goals, including school completion, job readiness, and lasting sobriety.
