SUPPORTIVE LIVING
Liberty Resources understands that having stable housing is key to maintaining the physical and emotional health of the people we serve. We offer residential services that offer support from people who take the time to understand what our participants need and help them connect to the right resources. Our people work with clients to develop a plan with meaningful goals with an approach that supports hope and healing.
Supportive Living Options
Apartment Treatment Program
Residential program through the NYS Office of Mental Health.
For more information about our Apartment Treatment Program, please contact venture@liberty-resources.org or 315-363-1441.
The Apartment Treatment Program offers residents who need mental health supports a chance to develop and improve their independent living skills in a more lenient environment, where they can experience realistic scenarios of personal responsibility. Despite the less restrictive setting, residents continue to have daily access to program staff for guidance, aid, and encouragement. We have various locations throughout Madison County.
The program is well suited for individuals who have thrived in structured environments and are now prepared to embrace greater flexibility and independence. This includes:
- Faithfully adhering to prescribed medication routine
- Embracing a lifestyle that does not include use of harmful substances
- Be able to uphold a tidy and organized living environment
- Proficiency in basic cooking skills and meal planning
Our goal is to provide a model for healthy living so residents can move into a more independent setting. Program staff are available around the clock, 365 days a year.
