Long-Term, Supportive Residential Setting

New Day offers a structured, 24-hour residential program in Somerville for adults recovering from substance use and co-occurring mental health conditions. As part of Bay Cove Human Services’ CASPAR programs, the center focuses on helping residents stabilize, build recovery skills, and prepare for independent living over a six- to nine-month stay in a safe, supportive environment.
