A Quick Path to Care in Queens

Cornerstone patients are admitted the same day they're referred, with transportation support and intake often arranged through hospitals, courts, or shelters. Those community-based partnerships help prevent clients in need of assistance from falling through the cracks when they are ready for help.

Medical and Mental Health Support in One Setting

The Center combines detox and inpatient rehab in a single facility, reducing disruptions between levels of care. Staff provide 24/7 medical supervision and medication for addiction treatment options. Mental health care is built into the program, including access to psychiatric counsel and therapy for trauma, depression, and anxiety. Treatment is structured and hands-on, especially for people managing more than one diagnosis.

Services That Support Life After Treatment

Beyond clinical care, patients get help with court compliance, housing referrals, and community-based resources. These services are built into the program, which helps people leave treatment with more than just sobriety. Peer mentors and case managers stay connected after discharge, offering continuity and support that reflect how recovery actually works.

A Realistic Option for Many

Cornerstone is especially well-suited for people who’ve struggled to access or stay in treatment before—whether due to legal involvement, unstable housing, or mental health needs. It offers a reliable, full-spectrum program for people who need stability, not just sobriety.

What Patients Are Saying

Patients and loved ones repeatedly highlight the facility’s professionalism, warmth, and long-term impact. Families credit staff with helping rebuild fractured relationships. Referring professionals praise intake coordination. Some complaints appear—such as discomfort during detox or questions about medications—but these are isolated and outweighed by consistent praise. For many, Cornerstone is the first step in rebuilding their lives.
