Integrity House

Last week, Integrity House had the pleasure of sponsoring and participating in Monarch Housing Associates, Inc.'s 5th Annual Conference.

Our Housing team spent the day connecting with housing advocates, community partners, and behavioral health peers, and left with practical tools that will strengthen how we help community members with behavioral health needs transition to independent living.

Thank you Monarch Housing Associates for continuing to center the importance of housing access, stability, and justice.

For Recovery Month, we invited a few voices from the Integrity House community to reflect on one question: What does recovery look like to you?

Their answers reflect different experiences, hopes, and perspectives on what recovery can mean.

For the third consecutive year, Integrity House has been named to Newsweek's list of America's Best Residential Addiction Treatment Centers 2026.

This recognition belongs first to our staff. Residential treatment happens around the clock, and our counselors, clinicians, nurses, residential aides, and facilities teams bring expertise and dedication to every shift. We're also grateful to our partners across the field, whose collaboration strengthens the care we provide.

Integrity House offers a range of residential options, including short-term treatment, long-term treatment, and halfway house programs, with support designed to help individuals throughout their recovery journey.

On Thursday, Integrity House’s Newark Outreach team participated in Save a Life Day, a nationwide effort dedicated to putting lifesaving overdose prevention resources into the hands of local communities.

Our team served over 100 individuals in the Frelinghuysen Avenue community, distributing over 70 Naloxone kits along with other essential supplies.

Held during Recovery Month, Save a Life Day highlights the role overdose prevention can play in creating more opportunities for recovery.

Thank you to United Healthcare Community Plan and RWJ Barnabas Institute for Prevention and Recovery for joining us!

National Food Service Workers Day is a chance to recognize the team behind the meals served across Integrity House’s residential programs.

Every day, our Food Services team prepares healthy meals and snacks for individuals enrolled in short-term, long-term, and halfway house treatment across our Newark and Secaucus campuses.

Today, we recognize them for the work they do behind the scenes to support our programs and the individuals we serve.

Happy National Addiction Professionals Day to the staff who make recovery possible for thousands of individuals every year! From our counselors, clinicians, peer recovery specialists, and medical staff, to our teams in food services, IT, facilities, and more, thank you for the work you do for our clients and community.

The work of Integrity House is only possible because of the people behind it.

On Thursday, we celebrated Staff Appreciation Day at Weequahic Park where staff from across the organization gathered for some fun outdoor activities and delicious meals from Stuf'd truck.

Thank you to our staff. We appreciate all that you do.

Last Friday, Integrity House welcomed representatives from NYU and Rutgers as part of the National Institute on Drug Abuse (NIDA) Clinical Trials Network (CTN).

The visit was an opportunity to host this space and connect with professionals in the field. exchange perspectives on addiction treatment, and learn more about the connection between research and community-based care.

Building these relationships helps support continued collaboration and knowledge-sharing across the behavioral health and addiction treatment field.

As summer winds down, we’re looking back at a client outing from earlier this season.

Individuals enrolled in our residential treatment programs visited the beach for a day of connection, relaxation, and fun! In our residential programs, recreation is intentionally built into the treatment experience, giving clients opportunities to build relationships, try new activities, and learn how to enjoy themselves without substances.

Sometimes progress looks like a major milestone. Sometimes it looks like a day at the beach.

Yesterday, Integrity House joined Saint James Health for the National Health Center Week Kickoff Ceremony. Our team connected with attendees and shared information about our many services.

We were able to distribute naloxone, hygiene kits, and other essential items to community members at the event.

Thank you to Saint James Health for bringing community organizations together and creating space for connection, education, and wellness.
