Continuum of Care

Continuum of Care was founded in 1966 as The New Haven Halfway House, establishing itself as a pioneer in community-based mental health services. We specialize in providing comprehensive residential case management, crisis intervention, and housing support for adults with mental illness, developmental disabilities, addiction, and homelessness. Our programs operate across 60 facilities in Connecticut, serving over 2,000 individuals annually through 55 licensed group homes, supported living arrangements, and crisis centers. We focus on breaking cycles of institutionalization by offering individualized service plans that prioritize dignity, independence, and community integration. Our team of experienced professionals collaborates with families and healthcare providers to develop personalized recovery paths for clients.

We address critical needs for young adults experiencing early-stage mental illness and families supporting individuals with developmental disabilities. Our services include emergency housing for 300 individuals annually, employment apprenticeships for skill development, and specialized programs for veterans and those with co-occurring disorders. We maintain a strong commitment to addressing systemic challenges like chronic homelessness and inconsistent medical care through coordinated case management. Our organization has grown to become Connecticut's largest community housing provider for individuals with mental illnesses and substance abuse challenges. Through decades of service, we continue advancing our mission to empower vulnerable populations to rebuild meaningful lives in community settings.
