New Directions For Women Sober Living Home Earns Rare Accreditation

    COSTA MESA, CA, March 03, 2017 /24-7PressRelease/ -- New Directions for Women (NDFW) has received accreditation from the esteemed Commission on Accreditation of Rehabilitation Facilities (CARF) for its community home, which combines transitional sober living with continued treatment services. NDFW is now one of only two accredited sober living homes in Orange County, Calif., assisting women in their transition to a sober lifestyle following residential treatment.

This prestigious endorsement from CARF, an international, independent, nonprofit organization, assures that the NDFW sober living community home is held to the absolute highest standards. The facility completed a comprehensive peer review that included an onsite evaluation of programs and patient services. Demonstrating model performance, NDFW earned the three-year accreditation, through September 2019, joining only one other facility in Orange County to do so.

This accreditation comes during a milestone year for the exclusively female, private drug and alcohol rehabilitation center, treating women of all ages, including pregnant women and mothers with children, as it celebrates 40 years of saving lives and healing generations. Located at the comfortable NDFW campus, the intensive sober living program is nestled in a community near a peaceful nature reserve, allowing residents to enjoy a tranquil and supportive atmosphere.

The program includes outpatient services centered on an evidenced-based approach that recognizes the diversity and individuality of each patient's stage in recovery.

"Receiving the CARF accreditation for our community home is a testament to our commitment to go above and beyond in our mission to heal women and their families," says Rebecca Flood, CEO of New Directions for Women. "At a time when so many unqualified providers are flooding the market, particularly with sober living housing, it is imperative that established treatment facilities continue to provide only the best possible care to their patients throughout the entire journey of recovery."

NDFW offers residential treatment including detox, aftercare, partial day treatment, intensive outpatient and mature women programs. The Costa Mesa-based facility has proudly held CARF accreditation for eight consecutive years, in addition to its newly received accreditation for its sober living community home.
