Liberation Programs Greenwich Youth & Family Resources

Set inside and partnered with the Greenwich YMCA, Liberation Programs' Greenwich services counsels clients in an intensive outpatient (IOP) setting. They primarily serve clients at their office, but they can set up telehealth appointments as needed. This location focuses on serving youth and families. Liberation Programs aims to meet clients where they are using a harm reduction approach. Their program includes 1-on-1, group, and family counseling plus medication (Buprenorphine, Naltrexone, or Suboxone) to reduce cravings and help clients focus on treatment. Even if clients aren't ready to stop using drugs entirely, Liberation helps them avoid overdoses and carries Narcan (naloxone) to administer in case of an overdose. In addition to treatment, Liberation runs preventative services to help adults and youth in the community avoid addiction or mental health issues in the future. They have recovery coaches on staff, including coaches with special experience serving clients who are pregnant or parenting. For families who need housing during their recovery, Liberation provides 18 units. Their mobile outreach vans offer treatment referrals, prescriptions for medication, and educational resources. Their team is also happy to go to community events and schools to talk about substance use.
